Terms and Conditions

Contest Period:

The Four Season Guides 2026 Photo Contest is open for submissions from January 1, 2026 through December 15, 2026, at 11:59 PM Mountain Time.

Eligibility:

Open to individuals 18 years or older. Participants may submit photos from any Four Season Guides trip, regardless of when they traveled, provided the photos have not been entered in a previous Four Season Guides photo contest. Employees and immediate family of FSG are ineligible.

Submission Guidelines:

We are looking for the best photos from your FSG trips! Feel free to enter any photo from your trip. Great photos could be beautiful landscapes, great perspective shots, people having fun, cool campsite photos, epic sunrise/sunset, wildlife, wildflowers...absolutely anything. Our judges (FSG staff...not photography professionals) will be looking for photos that instill some sense of “wow...what a great shot”! And there are many different photos that might do just that.
