The Snake River Outdoorsman, presented by Nightforce, runs May 22–24, 2026, in the steep canyon country near the Potlatch and Clearwater Rivers in north-central Idaho. This NRL Hunter event is built for hunters who want realistic, pressure-tested shooting in actual western terrain.
The course places the firing line primarily in the canyon bottom, forcing shooters to engage at high angles and across the canyon on a roughly 1.7-mile course with ~350 feet of elevation gain. All targets are animal-based and sized for practical hunting applications.
