If you are coming to Awards Night to receive a certificate, don’t forget to SEND in YOUR PICTURES or VIDEOS for the Four Thousand Footer SLIDESHOW ASAP!  Send up to six (6) digital photographs and two (2) horizontal videos of your hiking journey for inclusion in the slideshow.  Send as jpeg file format, in HIGH Resolution and with no captions. Include pictures of yourself on summits, favorite views, flora and fauna. DEADLINE to submit photographs is March 17th, 2024. We will do everything we can to get in pictures that come in later than that, but we cannot make any promises.

Email them (two at a time) to pictures@amc4000footer.org. Do not condense the picture file; we need it big to project it big! The sooner you send in your photographs, the better your chances for getting more pictures used.  

(You should receive confirmation of receipt of your pictures; if not, please ask.)
