Two Rescued After Getting Stuck On Cliff In Lincoln City

On Saturday, September 28, shortly after 10:00 am North Lincoln Fire and Rescue (NLFR) was notified that two people were stuck on the cliff side south of Gods Thumb in the Roads End area of Lincoln City. Crews responded and were able to make contact with the individuals, who were not injured, via cellphone. The Lincoln County Technical Rescue Team and a Coast Guard helicopter were requested to assist in the rescue operation. The technical rescue team was able to get the two subjects off the cliff. NLFR would like to thank our partners for their assistance. We would also like to remind individuals to use caution when hiking in these areas and to stay on the trails. This rescue alone tied up multiple resources for over two hours and cost thousands of dollars.
