Took the tools for a walk to the Chasm Lake Cirque on 12-DEC-2014. Very thin up there.

Concrete Shoes Wont Help Yah in Da River Climbed 12/13/14 All ice on route was super hard and plating, but good enough to climb. P1 P2 Mixed pitch had about 2-4 inches of ice going up the runnels P3 Final pitch was really good Then 700 ft of bs gully to the top of the ridge. Hiking out on the road in mtneering boots is demoralizing 2 star route, with a crappy descent

I was up at the spiral staircase area recently and noticed that the rescue sled is in very poor shape. Does anyone here have any insight into where one could seek a replacement sled?

Has anyone taken a peak at lincoln falls? I'm thinking of heading up there tomorrow or Friday to scout but curious if anyone has been up there after the last warm spell?

I was up at Lincoln on Sunday the 14th. Conditions were great. Plenty of fat ice in for numerous routes. The pillars were looking a bit like swiss cheese but the rest of the routes and ice are in particularly fat for this time of year. Get some!!!

@tenpins, what about any organizations out there that might donate something like that? Ic cascade toboggan a company that might do that? It just seems to me like it would be good to have the rescue gear there and in good repair, but I don't have the ability to replace it myself.

It looks like it might be fiberglass...in which case it might be able to be repaired. I'm not sure how they are used so you would want to know how the sleds are used before making certain repairs. Before yanking it to repair it you might want to check if it is the local rescue team's or whose it is. That way the rescue team doesn't head up thinking one is up there and meantime you are repairing it.
