Summer 2012 Black Diamond Instagram Photo Contest

We always love to see our fans getting after it in the great outdoors and after a successful run last spring we're excited to bring back our Instagram contest. Just like before, the Summer 2012 Black Diamond Instagram Photo Contest is ridiculously easy to enter and is open to any interpretation of the concept of summer: from trailrunning with the dog to sport-climbing at local crags to backpacking the Pacific Crest Trail to powder skiing in New Zealand to mowing the lawn in Ohio. It all works. Just read the rules below, get outside, get some pics and load them up. And, most importantly, have fun!
Here's the deal: Take a great summer action or lifestyle shot between Wednesday, August 1 and Wednesday, August 22, 2012 (photos must be taken in this timeframe, older photos will not be considered), share it with us on Instagram (tag it with #blackdiamondsummer AND @blackdiamondequipment) and you could win a $300 or $100 Black Diamond gift certificate or one of many daily poster prizes.
How it works: Upload sweet summer photos to your Instagram feed, make sure they are public, and mark them with #blackdiamondsummer AND @blackdiamondequipment. Each day we will select a daily winner who will recieve a fresh BD poster. At the end of the contest, an internal panel at Black Diamond will gather and filter through all of the photos hash tagged with #blackdiamondsummer AND @blackdiamondequipment and decide the winners based on both technical and thematic execution (as well as general awesomeness). You can enter as many photos as you want, but they MUST be taken with an iPhone, Android or Instagram compatible device (i.e., no DSLR or regular camera shots), MUST be taken within the time frame of the contest, and MUST be public and marked with #blackdiamondsummer and @blackdiamondequipment on Instagram.
Prizes:
-First Prize: $300 Gift Certificate for Black Diamond Equipment.**
-Runners Up (2): $100 Gift Certificate for Black Diamond Equipment.**
-Daily winners: Black Diamond poster (climbing or skiing, winner's choice)
**Gift certificate value must be spent in one order. Any balance will not carry over.
The Fine Print: No purchase necessary. No automated entries. Enter as many photos as you like. This contest is open only to legal U.S. or Canada residents who are 16 years of age or older, possess a valid ID proving age, and personal Internet email address. To receive the prize(s), the potential winner must reside in one of the fifty (50) United States or Canada. The winner may make no substitution or transfer of the prize(s). The prize(s) may not be redeemed for cash or anything else of value. Noncompliance with any of the Official Rules and Regulations will result in disqualification.
