Kingman Area is a climbing area in Arizona on Bureau of Land Management land within the Kingman Field Office. It is a small area with about seven climbing routes, four of which are boulders and the rest top rope and sport. The routes run from around 5.10a/b to 5.10c/d on the YDS scale, with Animal at the top end and Wild Child, a sport route, at the lower end. Spring and fall are the most comfortable times to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Kingman run from highs around 57°F in January to about 85°F in May, and from about 66°F in November to 79°F in October. That station sits roughly 800 feet lower than the climbing area, so temperatures at the routes run a little cooler. Windy Point Campground is about 4 miles away. Lone Coyote Trail and North Mountain Mesa Trail are both within about 6 miles.
