Winter Fun Photo Contest

Visit Carson Valley invites you to enter the #WhyCV 2022 Winter Fun Photo Contest! Show us how you are not hibernating with our Winter Fun in Carson Valley photo contest! We know that winter brings a treasure trove of new and fun things to do in the area, not to mention breathtaking scenery! Because of this, we want to see all the different ways to have fun this winter!

The Details

Fun means something different to everyone, so we invite you to get creative! Are you fishing the crystal waters of Topaz? Having a snowball fight in fresh powder? Exploring the vast network of trails with your favorite four-legged buddy? Maybe building a puzzle with family or getting lost in a good book near the fireplace is your type of fun (ours too!). This contest is absolutely open to your interpretation, and we can’t wait to see your creativity! Take new photos or dig into your archives, we happily accept both!

Submissions will be accepted through March 3rd. Winners will be announced on Visit Carson Valley’s social media pages, so be sure to follow us on Facebook and Instagram!
