Crosscut Mountain Sports Center to Host U.S. Biathlon Community March 2025

In March 2025, the U.S. biathlon community will come together at Crosscut Mountain Sports Center in Bozeman, MT, for the 2025 U.S. Biathlon Senior Nationals and Spring Festival presented by Toyota. Scheduled for March 26-29, this premier event will serve as the official National Championships for Senior athletes and Collegiate National Championships, with podium opportunities for U13, U15, youth, junior, para, and masters athletes.  

The action-packed weekend will feature a three-race format: the Sprint on Thursday, March 27, the Mass Start on Friday, March 28, and the Super Sprint Final on Saturday, March 29. Senior athletes will compete for National Championship titles and prize money, while the U.S. Biathlon Collegiate National Championships will be held in conjunction with the Sprint race on Thursday, March 27. An evening banquet in downtown Bozeman on Friday, March 28, will add to the festivities and offer an opportunity for camaraderie off the course.

“We’re incredibly honored to welcome the U.S. biathlon community to Crosscut for this year’s U.S. Biathlon Senior Nationals and Spring Festival presented by Toyota,” said Laurie Stahle of Crosscut Mountain Sports Center. “With Bozeman’s vibrant spirit and Crosscut’s world-class range and trails, we’re excited to showcase everything our region has to offer. This event will bring together the best athletes from across the nation, celebrating the dedication and passion that define the sport of biathlon.”

Crosscut Mountain Sports Center’s brand new venue is home to one of our most active U.S. biathlon clubs, and a new world-class 30-point biathlon range with 12-para points and an incredible 45km groomed ski trail system. Crosscut is thrilled about the opportunity to host the entire biathlon community for this important season finale for U.S. and North American biathletes. This will be an event to remember with activities on and off the snow, in one of the most picturesque venues in North America.
