Hi Everyone,

 

We have finally done the internal first round voting and are ready to rock here and have everyone vote. There were so many incredible photos and it was incredibly hard for us to come up with the final voting. Again thanks to our sponsors American Alpine Institute as the premier sponsor for this, and Pro Mountain Sports, Seattle Bouldering Project, and Backcountry Gear for their generous support.

 

Again the categories and prizes are...

 

Alpine -- $330 AAI Gift Cert*

Cragging -- $120 PMS and $120 Backcountry Gear Gift Cert

Scenic -- $330 AAI Gift Cert*

Skiing/Boarding -- $330 AAI Gift Cert*

Bouldering -- 6 month pass to Seattle Bouldering Project valued at $432

Ice -- $250 PMS Gift Cert

Humor -- $120 PMS Gift Cert

 

For the scenic category there were so many excellent photos we decided to allow more nominations then normal.

 

In the event of a tie for a category, we will have a quick revote for that category with the photos that tied for 3 days to determine the winner.

 

Results will be posted on 9pm August 20.

I want to comment on a few things here quickly.

 

The images are posted randomly, there was no order to how I did this. So if anyone thinks we unfairly ordered them please understand there is no order, it was determined by an excel spreadsheet.

 

We realize the voting system is not ideal, having to submit the form for each category. We would rather have an unideal contest then none at all. We hope you agree. We will try and have a better system in place next year when we do this that will highlight the photos better and offer a better voting system for the contestants and the people voting.

Thanks again Jon(and everyone else behind the scenes) for doing this. Very cool to see such an assortment of great photos.

 

With that being said, I am officially boycotting ski/snowboard section since my photo wasn't nominated but a picture of a whiteout was. :)

Is it really fair to have this photo entered in 3 different categories? I believe it was originally entered in "cragging" only, even though it doesn't really belong in that category.

 

Nice contest everyone, and thanks to the sponsors. It's going to be hard to choose the winners.

We obviously made a mistake. We've removed it from 2 of the categories.

Fun that this contest made me go look for the original photos instead of scanning a bad photo that was 25 years old.

 

REALLY fun for me to actually find them! Great pictures by everyone..thanks for posting them and the sponosr support!

Nothing in the rules states what can or cant be considered "cragging" And it's not my fault I crush AK routes in a weekend :grlaf::laf: :laf: :ass:;)

Thanks to everyone who took the time to post their amazing photos. I have to admit I feel guilty in a way posting the winners because the quality was so high among all the entries. Thanks again to our sponsors listed above for making this happen; please thank them with your business.

 

Winners please contact me and I'll make arrangements for your prizes.
