To commemorate its 50th anniversary, AO is also running a Live Your Adventure contest with over $10,000 in prizes.

The winner of this past photo contest is titled 'My Two Loves: My wife and My Algonquin.' The photographer says: "my favorite Algonquin memories are of times spent with my wife canoeing the quiet waters of our favorite place. Here, the morning sun adds its glow to the moment. On this route we have seen bear, beaver and moose -- all in one morning. We have also canoed quietly past a loon sitting on its nest and the almost always present great blue herons." (Chuck Hammill)
