About #

Tristan grew up in Steamboat Springs, Colorado and began Nordic skiing at the age of five and has been training and racing with the Steamboat Springs Winter Sports Club (SSWSC) ever since. He was introduced to biathlon at a Nordic event at age eleven and was hooked. His favorite biathlon venue to race at is Soldier Hollow because he has been racing and doing training camps there for many years, and enjoys skiing the courses in both the summer and winter!

Outside of biathlon, Tristan enjoys fly fishing, hunting, camping, and playing the guitar.
