    The Prizes: $50 REI Gift Cards will go to the winning stories. 8x12 Prints from the Adventurous Habits Photo Galleries will go to the Runner's Up! All stories may be featured on the website with your consent - just let us know along with your submission.

   
The Guidelines and Rules: Anyone over 6' in height may enter*. Send in a written, creative non-fiction story of an adventure you chose, or one that chose you. This could include climbing Everest or flirting with the cute cashier at the local coffee shop who you were always afraid to talk to - it's all an adventure as long as you spin it that way. For a good example of making an adv, watch this video.

    There is no length requirement, and in fact brevity with purpose is encouraged! Photographic evidence may accompany an account, but is not required.

    If you do plan to enter, either like our Facebook page or subscribe to our email list below to receive periodic updates on the contest and/or inspiration.
The Deadline: You have the whole summer - send in your account by September 1st, 2013. Early entries will receive higher priority and consideration because of the style points associated with sending in your submission early (seriously).
*I'm totally kidding. Anyone can enter.
