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!!

This story, spanning two pages, is accessible through our QR code when using a smartphone. Some of you, not having the guide in hands, didn't have an opportunity to read it. So, it's now online, enjoy!!

I, Seth Sands, 3, future mountain guide...

We received from Seth's grandmother, this email:

..."I have attached a couple of pics of my grandson, Seth (will be 3 in Nov.) and what a hiker. Fortunately my son and his family live in Banff so they are able to take full advantage of all the activities summer and winter. I can see Seth becoming a mountain guide and just wondered if you could possibly use his pic(s) in a future publication or article on hiking. Wish you continue success."
