Mormon Stone Quarry

Voree is an old Mormon ghost town on the west side of Burlington (on the Racine-Walworth county line).

There is an active quarry on the site of the old Mormon Stone Quarry, and not much else for collecting.

The Voree story is an odd and little-known chapter in Wisconsin history.

I stumbled upon it when looking for abandoned quarries.
