3. DEEP WINTER PHOTO CHALLENGE
The photographers in the Deep Winter Photo Challenge, sponsored by Arc’Teryx and Gore-Tex, have a unique and intense artistic challenge. They are given 72 hours to take their photographs on the terrain at Whistler Blackcomb Ski Resort, and if chosen as the winner, be crowned King or Queen of Storms.
The resulting work is jaw dropping, as the skiers and snowboarders captured in the winning photos are seriously shredding, so these made the BN team faves list.
