Over the past 31 years we have seen some incredible photos of Ice Fest and
the climbing at Pictured Rocks. We started a photo contest 2016 and have
been blown away by creativity of our Ice Fest family. We’re stoked to see
what everyone comes up with this year!
Here’s how it works:
1. During the weekend of Ice Fest (February 8th -12th) snap some photos. Photos
of climbing, socials, approaches, whatever as long as you feel it represents your
Ice Fest experience.
2. Post your photos to social media (Facebook or Instagram) with the hashtag
#michiganicefest2023. You can enter as many times as you want. Please make
sure your privacy settings allow us to see your photos. If we can’t see them, you
can’t win.
3. When the event is over, all of the photos tagged with #michiganicefest2023
will be judged by a panel of Ice Fest staff. Photos will be judged based on some
seriously strict criteria like exposure, composition, creativity, and coolness.
4. The panel’s ten favorite photos will be shared on the Michigan Ice Fest Facebook
page and the photo with the most likes at the end of one week will be the winner.
You must attend the Ice Fest to be eligible and photos need to be taken during
the event.
Pretty easy. It doesn’t cost you a dime and we know you’re posting all of your sweet Ice
Fest shots anyway, so you might as well try and win something. The prize will include a
registration for the 2024 Michigan Ice Fest and a class of your choice at next year’s event.
On top of this already stellar prize, we are throwing in some gear and clothing from our
event sponsors. So, when you get to Munising make sure you pull out your phone or
camera and take your best shot at winning the Michigan Ice Fest 2023 photo contest
