If you take
Routt County 150, you drive into the Elkhead mountains on a good dirt road, gaining elevation, watching the sage-covered hills get greener and then give way to aspen forests. There is a short road, marked by a sign pointing to Slater Creek Falls, but a trail to the falls is not identified. The falls are found by going directly down to the stream from a little cluster of aspen near the head of the road with the sign. A 10-minute walk downhill gets you to the falls, which is probably 15' high, a ledge of black rock 50-60' wide, with four separate leaps into a broad pool, which is 5 feet deep in some places.
