If you were in Squamish for the Arc’teryx Climbing Academy this July you were probably at the free event’s grand finale on Saturday night. Squamish Exposed pairs 6 of the industry’s best photographers, 6 Arc’teryx athletes, and 6 members of the public for 48 hours of continuous shooting and 12 hours of editing. The finished 3-minute slideshows then go head to head Saturday night to see which team has the best imagery, photo editing and creative slideshow presentation.

In case you couldn’t make it to Squamish Exposed this year we’ve gathered all the slideshows so you can feel the sweat and effort all these teams put into their work. We were blown away Saturday night, you will be too!
