About 25 participants from around St. Lawrence County and beyond, including out of state and Canada, raced a mile and a half through woods, firing two shots at each of five stations, then throwing a tomahawk at the end of the course. Traditional flintlock, percussion or modern in-line firearms were used. This year, however, contestants did not race on snowshoes due to lack of snow.
