Submissions for the 2013 Northwest Exposure contest will be accepted starting August 19, 2013.

The 2012 Northwest Exposure categories were:

    • Trailscapes -  Photos should highlight a Washington landscape with a trail in the composition.
    • Hikers in Action - Showcase hikers doing their thing - hiking. Compose a shot that features smiling hikers coming down the trail. Or capture a well-placed hiker in a photo can demonstrate scale in nature.
    • Flora and Fauna - Share your best photo of a Washington native plant or animal found while out on trail—from pikas to bears, from trilliums to lupine. 
    • Families on Trail -  Generations (young and old) sharing the joy of hiking and camping.
    • Offbeat Outdoors - Crazy, weird, or humorous photos taken on the trails of Washington state. This category will be judged in part by public voting online.
