Road Kill Wall is a sport climbing area in the Sanpete Ranger District of Manti-La Sal National Forest in Utah, managed by the Forest Service. It sits among a cluster of climbing and hiking destinations, with Schoolroom Area, Pictograph Wall and Shapeshifter Wall all about 0.1 mile away, and Maple Canyon campground just as close. The climbing here is all sport, with 14 routes spread across a range from 5.5 to 5.10c. Jason Stevens is the first ascentionist for several of them, including Tomato Man at 5.5 and Worm Hole Boodie at 5.10c. The median grade is 5.7, so the area works well for climbers looking for a range of options on a single outing. For timing, late spring and early fall are the most comfortable. Typical averages from the nearby Moroni weather station, which sits about 1,350 feet lower, show May highs around 71°F and September highs near 79°F, while July averages climb to about 89°F. The surrounding area offers plenty to pair with a climbing day. Middle Fork Maple Trail and Right Fork Trail are both within a third of a mile, and Box Canyon Trail is about 0.6 mile away. For a change of pace, the San Pitch River is roughly 9.5 miles off.
