***Devil's Slide***
Devil's Slide is an unusual geological formation located in northern Utah's Weber Canyon, near the community of Croydon in Morgan County. The slide consists of two parallel limestone strata that have been tilted to lie vertical, protruding 40 feet out of the mountainside. Intervening layers have eroded more quickly, forming a channel some 25 feet wide running hundreds of feet down the mountain.
Some very interesting history has occurred around this geological formation. In 1911 the Mystic Shriners held ceremonies and initiations around the formation. Included was a hike to the top of Devil’s Slide, followed by an optional slide downward.
Devil's Slide got its name from a Railroad worker named James John Walker. Walker family history states that around 1868, he was asked by a railroad crew what to call this unusual rocky chute and his reply was Devil’s Slide and the title stuck.
Devil went down to Morgan
Well the Devil went down to Morgan Country, He was lookin' for a cache to muggle, He was in a bind 'cause he was way behind, And he was willin' to make a deal
When he came across another geocacher, Sawin' on a GPS and playin' it hot, And the Devil jumped up on an ammo box, And said, "Geocacher, let me tell you what"
You probably didn't know it, But I'm a geocacher too, And if you care to take a DNF, I'll just make a bet with you, Now you play a pretty good GPS,cacher
But give the Devil his due, I'll bet a GPS of gold against your soul, I think I'm better than you. The geocacher said, My name's Mug L. Guy, And it might be a sin
But I'm gonna take your bet, you're gonna regret, I'm the best geocacher there's ever been

Legend has it that any who are able to slide from the top to the bottom will be rewarded with a token for one ticket to hell. Care to take a ride? Come and play on my playground slide, it's truly fit for any Devil. After you are done playing on the slide take a look around for a stamped metal ring with the coordinates stamped into the metal. Use these numbers to get the coordinates for stage 2.

Little is known about this next devilish feature. I suspect that it's the doorway to hell, none that entered, have ever returned to tell their tale. After you arrive take a look up and to the southwest, you will see that keyhole staring down at you. Once you get your fill of this amazing feature, start your search for another metal ring with the coordinates stamped into the metal. Use these numbers to get the coordinates for the final stage.

***Special Thanks To MadamButteryfly1822 and Railroader921***
This cache was made possible by MadamButterfly1822 and her devilish contributions. Her creativeness and artistic abilities have taken this cache to a whole new level of firey coolness. Railroader921 and his wood building craftiness with the final stage allowed us to turn this Geo-Tour cache from a no go to a reality.
