Birds Eye Marble Quarry Monument

Looking east to the red ledges you can see the quarry, originally operated by the Mormon church and others from the 1980s to the 1940s as the Nebo Rock Works, Thistle Rock Works and Birdseye Marble Quarry. The stone polishes to a high degree and is prized by jewelers and builders. Stone from the quarry is in the Utah State Capital, the Mormon Chapel in Washington, D.C., the Lincoln Memorial, and other state and federal buildings.
