2011 Experience The Mountain Parks Readers' Contest

Did we let you down? Looks like we forgot to clearly indicate how and where you could submit your best photos and videos..
At least we didn't do a great job showing what you've submitted so far.

As well, we've updated the 2011 Reader's Contest page with a brand new gallery.
We'll be showing the world your best memories!
This year, we introduced four categories: "Landscapes & Sunsets", "Flowers & Wildlife", "Friends & Family", and "Videos". Please make sure you give us enough details when uploading. If we don't have the requested information, we won't be able to consider your submission.

Lastly, we recommend you to be patient as we're gradually uploading all received submissions, and enjoy!!

Two new sweet videos added to our website!

The Endangered Creeks Expedition documents a West Kootenay based collective of whitewater paddlers raising concerns over the invasion of private hydro-electric projects through the province of British Columbia. The ECE attempts to reveal the true cost of "run of the river" hydro development by exploring both threatened and developed waterways. Taking the viewer on an action packed whirlwind tour, the ECE features local and professional boaters paddling some of the best whitewater BC has to offer.

This other video was filmed by Jon Rawlinson. He is a filmmaker, cinematographer and editor based in Vancouver. Jon specializes in travel, documentary and corporate video production.
