This Saturday, the 18th is the winter version. Same emails will work, but registration starts at 8. The warm weather has reduced the snow pack, and it will likely be icy.
Hope to see many of you there.

Great shoot as always! Seemed like a nice turnout. This time of year is dicey lately for snow but the course was 95%+ covered with snow. I like that this one has well-established trails plus rugged woods terrain, off-trail. Very well run event. Thanks to all the volunteers.
We had the best turnout ever...60 shooters.
It was nice seeing everyone, whether I knew you, or not.
I would have been more comfortable with spikes as opposed to snowshoes, but the organizers asked that we wore shoes. Fell down twice, lost my short starter, and several balls. Only got to fire 7 out of 9 shots. I fell down on my way to station 3. Gary picked my sorry azz up off the snow. Let him shoot my gun. Only fair.
Ooohhh, hope you are OK! One time when Dalton had their muzzleloading biathlon we had to race with barely any snow, and it was a 200 yards stretch across an old gravel railroad bed with the ties and rails were removed. There wasn’t any snow left and it was ice, and I slept in two of the meniscus in my knee. Ouch!
Do they do any other shooting events like the SoVermont biathlon does? Like an accuracy or speed contests, or the 5-card draw, etc.?
I am heading to the MZL woodswalk at the New Bedford, Mass, gun club on Sunday, and only got a ‘hall pass’ for one day (due to the dog, love him, but can’t bring him to a shoot, he hates gunfire
).
Sounds like everyone had a great time, congrats! I bet Danielle R. was there and my best guess is that she ran it 3-times!

Unfortunately, no. Contact Joe to ask for more stuff. He's the club prez.

I hope it keeps going. Lots of fun and good people. Good to see you, Painter!
Bob said that the turnout was the best so far. 60 shooters, many of whom took more than one trip around.
With attendance like that, as long as we can get volunteers to score, and someone still wants to run it, it should continue for a long time.

I’d be happy to help at a station after one of my “runs”.
