About the Vulture Vista Ultra
The course runs through a reclaimed limestone quarry at DePauw Nature Park, where rock walls rise above wooded singletrack and exposed trail. Each loop returns you to the same start and finish hub, so crews and spectators are never far. Turkey vultures actually circle overhead. The terrain is genuinely hilly, and the summer heat is part of the deal.
Packet pickup is the evening before the race at Lost Hollow Brewery on Franklin Street in Greencastle. The start area is set up to accommodate crews and self-support, with aid stations on course stocked with standard ultra fare and Tailwind nutrition.

The Vulture Vista Ultra has been held every year since at least 2024. That is as far back as RunSignup's records for this race go, so it may well be older.
How we calculate these stats: RunSesh calculates these figures from the most recent published results of past editions, sourced from RunSignup. We show aggregates only: field size, winning and median times, and the cutoff. We never publish individual finisher tables. Last updated Nov 13, 2026.
