Review:
Slide Rock State Park was originally an apple farm developed by the homesteader Frank Pendley in 1910. Pendley developed an irrigation system that allowed him to plant apple trees and other produce as well as keep livestock. The slippery creek located on the homestead makes a great natural waterslide for visitors to slide on in the summertime. Today, the property stands in a state park and the sliding rock is still in use as a swimming hole. The park also contains many beautiful creeks and rock formations, hiking trails, picnic areas, a gift shop, and fishing areas.
