Biathlon
The Seeley Lake Challenge Biathlon brings out all levels of skiers from rank beginners to experienced biathletes in a safe environment. We emphasize fun in this race and guarantee a good time combining the Montana traditions of guns and skis. Racers can choose from 3K, 9K, or 21K distances. No matter which category you ski, the racers will ski a loop, shoot prone, ski a loop, shoot standing, and ski another loop.
