Directions
BCGC Steel Challenge matches are held on the Jim Starr Long Range berm, located behind the target pit at the far end of the range. To reach it, drive past the Gatekeeper booth and the short-range area, continuing onto the long-range road. Stay on that road as it curves around the log cabin (Stat House), and continue on road around the target pit to the berm.
