The authors of the winning posts will then be contacted via email who will have 72 hours to claim their prize. Otherwise, we'll draw again.

Contest Details:

2) All posts from 5/13 - 6/13 @ 8 P.M. Mountain Time count as one entry.

The Fine Print:

For the entry to count, the post should be applicable to backpacking, hiking, the outdoors, etc., and at least somewhat constructive. For instance, we won't be able to count intentionally repeated posts, spam, one word posts (Unless it's a really good one word post), or posts that don't meet our basic forum guidelines agreed to when you Register. Essentially, use basic judgment and all of your posts will count.

Thanks for visiting, and good luck!
