Maple Grove is a climbing area in the Fillmore Ranger District of Fishlake National Forest in Utah, managed by the Forest Service. It sits among a cluster of trails and a campground, with North Maple Grove and Rock Canyon both within half a mile. The climbing here is all sport, and the routes run from about 5.10a up to 5.12a. Con Man is the easiest at 5.10a, and The Siege Perilous is the hardest at 5.12a. The median grade is 5.11a, so climbers looking for a range of options will find it here. For timing, late spring and early fall are the most comfortable. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Manti show May highs around 69°F and September highs around 77°F, while July averages about 87°F. That station sits roughly 1,400 feet lower than the climbing area, so temperatures at the crag run cooler. Maple Grove - Rec Site is about half a mile away for camping, and the Rock Canyon/cedar Spr Spur mountain biking route is under a mile off. North Maple Grove and Pack Trail are also close by.
