Schoolhouse Rock 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 hiking and climbing destinations in the area, with Holman Canyon and Holman Canyon Trail both within about a mile and a half. The climbing here is all sport, and the routes range from easy to intermediate. The easiest is Sea Monkeys at 5.0, while the hardest is Bat For Breakfast at 5.10b. Several of the routes are in the 5.7 to 5.10a range, making it a good area for climbers looking for a mix of grades on a single outing. Spring and fall are the most comfortable times to go. Typical averages from the Moroni weather station, about 10 miles away, show May highs near 71°F and October highs near 66°F, though that station sits roughly 1,600 feet lower than the climbing area, so temperatures up high run cooler. Nearby, The Compound and Birthday Corridor are climbing areas about 6 miles away. Maple Canyon campground is about 6 miles off, and Salt Creek offers canoeing about 7 miles away.
