Hey Paddlers, Keen Footwear and
Canoe and
Kayak magazine are teaming up for the first annual Portage Photo Contest.
Did a log ruin your rapid? Does a sieve make that cataract really suck? Or maybe
you just had to carry your canoe between lakes? Send us your best photos
featuring the hardest portages on the planet, and a description of the epic. We'll line all photos up in a
bracket (think March Madness) and readers will have a chance to
vote on their favorite photo. The top three photos at the end of the tournament
will receive
free Keen booties and a free subscription to Canoe and Kayak
magazine, plus the winner
gets $100
towards the next shuttle.
Please email your
photo and a short 100-word essay describing the portage to
letters@canoekayak.com by August 1,
2010.
