Nuwuvi Ledge is a climbing area on Bureau of Land Management land in the Richfield Field Office of Utah, about 13 miles from the town of Richfield. The area holds six routes, with grades ranging from 5.7 to 5.11a, and mixes sport, trad and mixed styles. The most comfortable months for a visit are typically May and September, when typical averages from a nearby weather station run from highs around 73°F to 81°F. That station sits roughly 1,300 feet lower than the ledge, so temperatures up high run cooler. Among the routes, Koosharem Kauseway is a trad climb at 5.7, and Coriz Chimney is a mixed route at 5.8. The sport routes include Keres at 5.10a and Washakie at 5.11a. Scorups Meadow is the closest nearby hike, about 0.8 miles away, and Little Lost Creek is about 4.5 miles off. Black Mountain and the Richfield Ranger District, a lake fishing area, are both within about 7 miles.
