Lincoln Falls is a cluster of seasonal ice climbing routes at the northeast base of Mount Lincoln, in Park County, Colorado.
The falls
The World Waterfall Database carries Lincoln Falls as Unconfirmed, with no height, drop count or page-update date on its current Colorado list, which places it in Pike National Forest. The Colorado Mountain Club describes several seasonal ice flows here, graded WI2 to WI5. The area sits in the Southern Rockies, high, rugged mountains with alpine peaks and glacial valleys where snowmelt drives strong spring flows over granite and volcanic cliffs, though Lincoln Falls itself is climbed as ice rather than seen as a summer cascade. Permanent summer flow and the stream's name are not documented.
Getting there
The approach starts near Montgomery Reservoir, off gravel County Road 4, and follows the gated reservoir road across a grated walkway before climbing toward the ice: about 1.5 miles round trip with 800 feet of gain. The Forest Service manages the land and requires a parking permit.
When to go
The ice climbing season runs from November to March, and weekends can be crowded.
On site
This is technical ice terrain for experienced climbers, with avalanche terrain and lead and multipitch routes.
