Serendipity Wall is a sport climbing area in the Ogden Ranger District of the Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest in Utah, managed by the Forest Service. It sits among a cluster of hiking routes and another climbing area, Causey Reservoir, about 1.5 miles away. The wall holds eight sport routes, with grades ranging from 5.9 up to 5.13b/c. The easiest are Black Pudding and Lung Chowder at 5.9, and the hardest is Turbulent Mirror at 5.13b/c. Jed Lowe is listed as the first ascender of In Harm's Way and Hierarchy, both at 5.12a/b and 5.12c. For timing, late spring and early fall are the most comfortable. Typical averages from a nearby weather station show May highs around 71°F and September highs around 79°F, while July and August average about 90°F. That station sits roughly 1,200 feet lower than the wall, so temperatures here run cooler. Wheat Grass and Bear Hollow are both hikes within a mile. Willows Campground and Upper Meadows are about 5 miles away.
