In Q, portage from Elizabeth to Jesse, from Elizabeth's side. Took it with my cellphone after realizing how it looked when I came back for the canoe.

At a bend on the Kelso River, on our 2009 "Celebration" canoe trip (the first trip after the kidney transplant.) This has always been Spartan1's favorite shot.

What are the rules on locations? I have a photo that I took recently that was not in the BWCA/Quetico, but the BWCA is visible in it in the distance. Would that be okay?

I know that the submission deadline has now passed for this month, but I would still like to know the answer to my previous question for future contests.

I know it is too late...but I caught this awesome sunset picture over Disappointment Lake in June!

IMHO, there is no harm in entering a photo like that as long as you describe and identify its location. It is up to the judges whether it will win, but the rest of us can enjoy it no matter what the outcome.
