Stranded Hikers Rescued

Two stranded hikers required rescue from the Flume Slide in Lincoln on Thursday.

They said due to extremely icy conditions they were unable to move from their location.

First responders using ropes, crampons and harnesses reached the stranded hikers and lowered them to safety.

Fish and Game officers said the two Rhode Island residents were prepared for an overnight winter hike and camping but only had micro spikes and not crampons.
