Welcome to the site.
If it's in the sun and loosely stacked you should be good to go by winter. Maple seasons fast when split, if it was something like Oak it would take longer to season.

He's right; I've found Maple to be a pretty fast drying wood and sometimes one that wants to turn "pithy" (soft) if not used in time-guess it's just the way that it is.

Should be good too go this winter as long as you've got good airflow through it all.
I tend too cut maple into rounds and let it sit a year (over winter) then split it in Spring and use it that fall. Mostly depends on the size of the pieces and again good airflow.
