Overview
Welcome to Incline Vista, the first ever trail race held on Central Oregon’s iconic Cline Butte. This early season race is the perfect way to shake off winter legs and dive into miles of fresh singletrack. From the summit you’ll soak in panoramic 360 degree views of the Cascade volcanoes to the west and the Ochoco Mountains and Smith Rock to the east.
Both the 20M and 15M routes showcase the new trails weaving around and up the butte. It’s runnable, it’s challenging, and it’s the kind of course that will leave you grinning at the finish line with post-race food and drinks waiting.

Volunteers
Every race has a secret sauce—and it’s not the aid station snacks. It’s the volunteers. Without their energy, smiles, and hard work, none of these events would happen.
Volunteering is a chance to give back to the trail running community, cheer on runners from a different perspective, and maybe even scope out what racing feels like before signing up yourself. Whatever brings you to the volunteer crew, we see you as partners—and we celebrate you like the trail heroes you are.
What You’ll Get as a Volunteer
At Alpine Running races, volunteers receive:
A quality race t-shirt (wear it with pride!)
A post-race meal and beverage—because good food tastes even better after trail magic
Race credit toward a future Alpine Running event
A Few Ground Rules
To keep things fair and sustainable, here’s how volunteer benefits work:
Credits expire within one year of being issued.
Credits don’t apply to volunteers associated with race sponsors.*
Credits and race-day perks are for folks who sign up ahead of time and fill their assigned role.
Credits can only be redeemed online during registration.
Alpine Running reserves the right to adjust credits, restrictions, or benefits if needed.
