Walls of Liberation is a sport climbing area in the Sanpete Ranger District of Manti-La Sal National Forest in central Utah. It sits within a cluster of climbing and hiking destinations, with Simpson Rock and North Damascus Gate both about 0.1 mile away, and the Right Fork Trail a similar distance off. The Forest Service manages the surrounding land. The climbing here is all sport, with 16 routes ranging from 5.6 to 5.11c on the YDS scale. The easiest routes, Bullets Over Baghdad and TOW Jam, are both 5.6, and the hardest is M.R.E. (Maple Rock Exfoliation) at 5.11c. Korengal Two-Step is 5.8, and This Scud's For You is 5.9. For timing, the most comfortable months are typically May and September, when typical averages from the nearby Moroni weather station run from highs around 71°F to 79°F. That station sits about 1,600 feet lower than the area, so temperatures at the climbing itself run cooler. Winter is cold, with typical January highs near 38°F and lows around 13°F. Maple Canyon campground is 0.3 mile away, and the Middle Fork Maple Trail is 0.4 mile off. The Box Canyon Trail is 0.8 mile away, and the San Pitch River, a paddling spot, is about 10 miles away.
