Linda Vista Wall is a climbing area in the Pusch Ridge Wilderness, part of the Santa Catalina Ranger District of the Coronado National Forest in Arizona. The Forest Service manages the land. The cooler months are the most comfortable time to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station run around a 75°F high and 36°F low in March and 76°F and 38°F in November, and the wall sits roughly 800 feet above that station, so temperatures there run a bit cooler. Summer highs at the station reach about 100°F. Linda Vista Bouldering, Swerve Boulder and the Pusch Peak Trail all lie about 0.2 miles away. The larger Pusch Ridge climbing area is about 1.1 miles off.
