Army Spc. Andy Wilkens, Colorado National Guard Biathlon coordinator, crosses the starting line of a practice on day four of the National Guard Biathlon All Regions Snow Camp Dec. 11, 2010, in West Yellowstone, Mont. The 6-kilometer practice race challenged the racers to apply all of the skills they learned during the camp over the first three days. "This was an open door training event for the purpose of presenting the sport of biathlon to the individual National Guard states, said Wilkens. The four-day event covered everything from basic skiing techniques to competitive marksmanship and offered a greater number of Soldiers and Airmen the opportunity to participate in instruction generally only available to national-level athletes.
