Brigham and Hawes Quarry

Rocklin Travel Guide Brigham and Hawes Quarry is a historic site located in the city of Rocklin, California. This former limestone quarry was originally operated by the Mormon pioneers in the mid-1800s

and played a significant role in the development of the area's economy. The high-quality limestone extracted from this site was used for building materials, such as railroad ballast and agricultural lime, which were in high demand during that time. Today, the quarry serves as a popular tourist destination for visitors interested in learning about the region's rich history and heritage. Visitors to Brigham and Hawes Quarry can marvel at the impressive remains of the original quarry structures, including the towering stone walls that have stood the test of time. A guided tour of the site offers a glimpse into the challenging conditions that the Mormon pioneers faced while working in the quarry, and the innovative techniques they used to extract limestone from the earth.

In addition to its historical significance, the quarry also boasts stunning natural surroundings, making it an ideal spot for outdoor enthusiasts. Visitors can enjoy a leisurely hike around the area and take in the picturesque views of the Sierra Nevada mountains and the American River canyon, making this a must-see stop for anyone traveling through Rocklin, California.
