Pacific Crest Trail - Photo Contest

It’s that time again! Time to hit us with your best shots and enter the annual PCTA Photo Contest using the form below. The photo contest is a highlight of our year because it showcases the majesty of the Pacific Crest Trail as well as the strong, resilient spirits of the people who enjoy and support the trail in their favorite ways.

Many of the pictures we’ll publish in 2023 will come from this contest and maybe yours could be one of them! Volunteering your creativity in this way gives back to the trail community and shares the beauty, joy and accomplishment of your trail adventures with all of us. Your photos also become an important part of our advocacy and fundraising work on behalf of the trail.

Think about photographs that would look great on the cover of the PCT Communicator, in our annual calendar or in our trail protection materials?

Volunteering your creative work lets you give back to the trail that you love. Put your photos to good use and help the trail. Please enter our 2023 Photo Contest. We love seeing the trail through your eyes and look forward to your submissions.
