Windows Maps on Windows 10 Mobile, 10586.11

I upgraded my Icon from 8.1 to 10586.11. Everything seems to be working just fine except Windows Maps which crashes upon opening. I understand Cortana uses Windows Maps, so I'd really like this working. No way to install since it's a baked in app.

Aside from wiping and and reloading, are there any other options to uninstall/reinstall a baked in Windows app? Particularly, Windows Maps?

Not really except hard reset and start from clean WM10. The only good news for you is every crash gets reported as a bug back to Microsoft. When they then update the apps (and they update every week or two), odds are the cause will have been fixed.
