The Corndog Wall is a climbing area in Arizona, about 0.3 miles from the town of Granite Dells. It sits right next to two other climbing areas, Shady Grove and The Auto Shop, both about 0.1 miles away, which makes it easy to pair with a visit to those spots. The area has 17 routes, with 12 of them sport climbs, 3 trad routes and 2 top-ropes. The grades run from 5.5 up to 5.11, with the median around 5.9+. A few of the named routes include A Tale of Two Corndogs (5.5, top rope), The Velveteen Corndog (5.7+, trad) and Corndog Upraising (5.10c, sport). Spring and fall are the most comfortable times to climb. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Prescott show May highs around 77°F and October highs around 73°F, while July and August average about 90°F. For a change from the rock, the Soggy Bottom Trail and Gateway Trail are both about 0.3 miles away. Lynx Campground, about 6.5 miles off, and Yavapai Campground, about 7 miles away, offer places to stay.
