Warning! Always call before you attempt the long drive to go out there to be sure that they are open. Although weather was a factor in this scenario, The amount of effort required to get to their location should deserve the courtesy of a return phone call when one has jumped through many hoops to get there. I write this a couple days after without any response whatsoever. The gentleman at the quarry did not have the courtesy to call or text to say yay or nay in those two hours so we drove the 3 hours back. While awaiting his response, we went to the great basin museum, the local rock store, and out to the Topaz internment camp site. It was raining but we were determined to do trilobite hunting regardless because of the time we had invested to get out there. I left a voicemail for him and also sent a text message that was confirmed delivered. I replied that this was not a problem because I was in an SUV and had come so far that I was willing to go out there "come hell or high water." I was also willing to wait a couple hours as well. I informed the nice lady that I had so far driven three hours to get to that point and she said that I could call the person at the quarry because he had made it out there and had mentioned that water was coming over the gravel road. Once we reached Delta, I called and was told that they were closed that day because of the rain and water crossing road in two places. After reading the prior review I was a bit paranoid about driving over three hours and having to turn around if nobody was there.
