2024 ACC National Photo Contest Winners

 

Who doesn’t love a sweet photo contest?! This year we ran a general one that was open to all ACC members, calling for images that portray the beauty of the spaces where we play and the passion that our members have for these environments.

The photo contest had three categories, plus a bonus one!

  1. Action & Adventure

  2. Landscape

  3. Flora & Fauna

  4. Other

Scroll on to see the winners and a few other entires. To see our full write-up on why he chose the winners, as well as honourable mentions, see our next issue of The Gazette, coming this fall.


Action & Adventure

@shotaida

"Last to leave the hut sometimes has its perks. The group on their way up to ski the 7 steps after a warm breakfast and a few too many cups of coffee."


Landscape

“Alpine lake seen descending from Ossa Mountain.”


Fauna & Flora

Aurore Kurc

“The picture was taken during the 2023 Chess Group GMC. After a first day quite hazy we woke up to dark threatening skies and rain. After delaying our departure, ours guide decided to cancel most summit pushes after hearing deep rumbles and thunder, to keep us safe. Instead we done our rain gears, packed some snacks, and went to explore the meadows below camp. And the gloomy day turned into discovering a little slice of paradise!”
