Photo Contest

Show Us Where You've Taken the Skills You Built with Us

Welcome to our first-ever photography contest! As a photographer, I get pretty excited about strong imagery. A single photograph can communicate emotion, vision, tension, beauty and much more. We’d love to see how DLCG has enabled your climbing life.

Judging Guidelines

  1. Does the image speak to how DLCG contributed to a climber’s practice?

  2. Is the image quality strong?

Photo Contest Rules

  1. Submit one to five images.

  2. Image files should be a) high resolution (300 dpi), b) 3000 x 3000 px minimum size, c) .jpg or .png file types only.

  3. Submit only images you shot yourself (e.g. you own the publishing rights, no AI generated or enhanced imagery).

  4. If people are in your image, submit only if you have permission to share.

  5. We intend to show off your images! By submitting your image to this contest, you grant Devils Lake Climbing Guides commercial publishing rights for use in print and/or online marketing.

“Thank you so much for a truly perfect time at Devils lake with Sarah and Luke. I had no idea what to expect but I could not have asked for more. I loved the instruction almost as much as the climbing itself.”
