This cache is a park and grab, black-taped bison close to the Olympic Biathlon venue.
Biathlon combines cross country skiing with precision target shooting. In a typical Winter race, a Biathlete is required to ski with his or her rifle over a set distance to a shooting range, where five shots at five knockdown targets 50 m down range are taken from prone position. Depending on the format, either a time penalty or penalty laps are assessed for missed shots. The racer then skiis another loop, and comes back to the shooting range for another set of shots - this time from a standing stance. Again penalties are assessed for missed shots. The biathlete then skiis a final loop to complete the race. Biathlon is an unlikely combination of events - one is an aerobic activity which requires strength, speed, and endurance and the other is a passive activity which requires concentration and a steady hand.
BYOP. There is a Lake Placid, USA Biathlon pin for the FTF.
