WINONA, Minn. – Two climbers found their way to the top of the Levee Park boulder but couldn’t figure out a passage back down in the dark. Firefighters brought them down uninjured with a roof ladder. The monolith was planted in Levee Park in 2019 as an attraction for what’;s called “bouldering” — a form of free climbing on small rock formations or artificial rock walls without ropes or harnesses.

Trapped 12 feet up. Lessom: Getting up can be easier than gettg down.
