The community is home to the Natural Bridge State Resort Park. Slade is a popular location for accommodations for climbers of the Red River Gorge. The campground operated by Miguel's Pizza has been called Camp 4 of the East. [4] Slade and the campground were featured in the 2004 documentary movie Red River Ruckus by Victory Productions.
The park is abundant with Native American relics, shelters, and burial grounds. The main attraction is the bridge itself, a natural arch with more than 15 million pounds (6,800 t) of rock in suspension. It is 30 feet (9.1 m) wide at the top and 85 feet (26 m) at the base; one of the more than 70 natural arches located in the area. [11]
