Slate Run is a tributary to the Scioto River; it flows through the Northwest corner of Upper Arlington, Ohio. The creek gets its name from the slate that makes up the creek bed. It winds through a ravine and has several small, yet prominent waterfalls. The creek is mainly fed by storm water runoff which makes the creek very susceptible to running dry during extended periods of no rain.
