Mazama is at least 30-40 minutes away and there is NO ranger station there. The nearest one is in Winthrop (with the thin veil of Methow Valley Information Center or something like that). You may be able to get basic conditions info at the general store in Mazama, but not much. Also, if coming from the west, the Marblemount Ranger Station should be able to provide some information.

Liberty Crack and Thin Red Line
Most climbers take two days on Liberty Crack, often fixing the first three pitches and returning the next day to climb to the summit. Very competent parties do it in a day. Thin Red Line has seen very few free ascents. It is a classic aid line at A3, although it has gone clean, which boggles my mind.
