Redmond Rocks is a climbing area on Bureau of Land Management land in Utah's Richfield Field Office, about 18 miles from the town of Manti. It sits among several other climbing areas, with Toddler Wall about half a mile away and Cyclops Wall and Yathamo Wall within a mile. The area has seven sport routes, all rated from 5.9 to 5.12. The easiest are Election Meddling and Nathaniel's Climb at 5.9, and the hardest is Wang Dang Doodle at 5.12. The routes are all sport, so climbers can expect bolted anchors rather than traditional gear. For timing, late spring and early fall are the most comfortable. Typical averages from the nearby Manti weather station show May highs around 69°F and September highs around 77°F, while July averages climb to about 87°F. Nearby, the Toddler Wall and Cyclops Wall climbing areas are close by, and the Steves Basin and Steves Wash hikes are about 5 miles away.
