West Yellowstone Ski Education Foundation & Altius Handcrafted Firearms
Rendezvous Ski Trails Biathlon RangeWest Yellowstone, Montana USA
WYSEF and Altius Handcrafted Firearms invite you to West Yellowstone’s Rendezvous Ski Trails Biathlon Range for our annual Mountain Bike Biathlon. This unique competition is open to any interested participants. It provides a training opportunity for experienced Biathletes and a chance for others to experience the Olympic sport of Biathlon. Mountain Bikes and Summer Trails substitute for skis and snow but the rifles and shooting are the same.
IBU Class Biathletes must have their own equipment and will shoot on standard IBU targets. Novice Class Biathletes will be provided with rifles and ammunition and will shoot on the larger, ‘Standing’, targets.
We look forward to seeing you in West Yellowstone!
