No photo – no worries. If you want to share a great story or “favorite moment” but didn’t get a chance to snap a photo – don’t worry! Your experience at the Park is what interests us.
Get recognized! Once you submit your stories and photos they become the property of Chimney Rock Park. When possible we will credit your photo with your name.
Get prizes! Every month we will have a special prize drawing for one lucky entry.
Tips and instructions: If uploading a photo, please send as either a JPG or TIF file. Please only send one photo at a time. If the individual file is 5MB or more, please contact Meghan Rogers to ftp files. Keep in mind that your typical point-and-shoot digital camera (4 mega pixels or greater) can shoot a high quality image. Check your camera's owner’s manual for setting the quality mode. When sending in your story and/or photo, please remember to include the date if possible. If you do not know the exact date of the moment, give us as much information as you can: “spring 2006,” “October 2004,” etc. The most important thing to remember is to have fun!
