Creativity reigned throughout the week–and several hilarious captions were entered. But, as is the nature with contests, there can only be one winner. And so, this week’s Leave No Trace Caption Contest winner is… Rachel, who captioned the above shot:
Congrats, Rachel! You win a pair of Chaco sandals; a pair of Smartwool socks (not to be worn with said Chacos) and a base layer from Smartwool; as well a Base Camp Duffel bag from The North Face; and a Planet Explore reusable water bottle and seed card.
And, in case you forgot, here’s the weekly contest deal:
Each Tuesday, we’ll post a photo and leave the comments section open to our readers. Every subsequent Tuesday we’ll post a new photo for captioning and announce last week’s winner. Submit using the comments section below. Good luck!
