Father and Son Rescued From Ravine Near Minnehaha Falls in Minneapolis
A father and son were trapped in a ravine near Minnehaha Falls in Minneapolis, Minnesota, on the evening of November 7, and were rescued by the Minneapolis Fire Department. Neither was injured.
The department said the call for help came in at 5:20 p.m. The two were stranded on a steep rock cliff near Minnehaha Avenue and 48th Street, south of Minnehaha Falls, about 75 to 100 feet below the trail. They had been hiking in the park when they became stuck on a slippery rock ledge, unable to climb up or down safely.
The fire department's technical rescue team used specialized equipment and a rope system to raise the two to the top one at a time. The Minnehaha Falls area is a popular park destination for Minneapolis residents. The rescue took place on Saturday evening, November 7, and was reported on November 8.
