Forty foot twin walls of hard limestone bracket a softer shaly limestone base forming a chute called Devil's Slide. They are upended remnants of an ancient seabed that existed 170-180 million years ago. The surrounding shaly limestone erode at a faster rate leaving the walls. Similar formations can be found nearby but Devil's Slide is the most pronounced.
I took this picture about two weeks ago while traveling to one of my fishing holes. The Weber River runs below this slide. Travellers on I-84 can view the slide as they travel between Henefer and Morgan Utah.
