Using 13.7 fb-1 of data recorded by the CLEO detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring, we investigate the spectrum of charmed baryons which decay into Λc+π-π+ and are more massive than the Λc+(2625) baryon. We find evidence for two new states: one is broad and has an invariant mass roughly 480 MeV above that of the Λc+ baryon; the other is narrow with an invariant mass of 596±1±2 MeV above the Λc+ mass.
