Disused quarry in pillow basalt, up Price Creek Rd from highway just south of Kings Valley. Locked gate is only open during hunting season in October.
Apparently named Price Creek Quarry in Tschernich (1992).
From the caption of https://www.mindat.org/photo-242004.html
“Other quarries in the area also received colorful names from the discoverors: DEK quarry (Dan, Earl & Kris), Dan's Secret quarry (because Dan sandbagged this one), Little Venice (because it had about 2 feet of water in it), and Trashed quarry (because it was ruined by the first collector).”
