You might drive right past Devil's Slide if you didn't know what you were looking for. Located right next to the freeway about eight miles east of Morgan on I-15, Devil's Slide is an amazing example of layers of soft and hard rock and erosion at work.
Driving east through Weber Canyon, from Morgan to Henefer the canyon walls are quite steep, with minor rows of rock jutting up vertically through the soil. Devil's Slide is a bigger example of this jutting rock. It's not a real slide, but it certainly looks like one if you have a good imagination!
The rock layers that were once horizontal have been tilted through folding and pressure to a near vertical position, and erosion created what is now Devil's Slide. A small exit ramp on the freeway is the only way to stop and view this magnificent work of nature. Occasionally you will see foolhardy hikers or rock climbers attempting to climb up the nearly vertical slide (without much success).
The two outer walls of the slide are over 40 feet high, with a flat rock surface separating them by about 25 feet, and the slide extends for hundred of feet up the hillside. It really does look like a slide fit only for a "Devil's" playground!
