Three Rivers Quarry Ledgstone The bold lavender and cream colors splash across these stones in countless patterns. Often called the Lavender Zebra, this is a remarkable of kind stone with many color patterns, most often with lavender and cream being dominant.
This product is available for delivery to nearly all locations in the USA and Canada. In the spring of 2018, Alexandra Gilcrest and a business associate of ours went on an expedition into Idaho to track down some potential stashes of Three Rivers Flagstone. As a result of their success, we have a very limited amount of this very valuable stone in mostly patio-size pieces and ledge stone veneer to sell.
There is always going to be a slight variance of square footage from pallet to pallet even if the weights are similar. The square foot coverage per ton of flagstone will vary with each project. Designs of the project, the average stone thickness, size of joints, pattern cuts, waste, etc. will affect area coverage.
This legendary Idaho quarry was closed down back in 2009 by the typical false environmentalist arguments about destroying "all the forest and river watershed lands." At one point providing 181 jobs and pumping nearly 5.4 million dollars a year into the local economy by supplying a rare color pattern in flagstone. The same similar pattern of practice has been used by extremists to close timber sawmills, rock quarries, and cattle grazing lands across the Western USA. The irony is that these materials and products are used more than ever and at a huge cost to the environment since they are trucked or shipped all the way down from Canada into California and beyond. So Canadian people get jobs and great incomes from Western consumers and taxpayers and Western rural communities go broke or lay nearly broken.
In most cases we charge by the ton and we have the receipts from the scale house at the quarry to show upon request. Materials sold by the yard tend to have very in-accurate amounts in the trucks. Amounts depend the size of the loader bucket, how well the material was scooped up and who was supervising the loading of the truck. Scale House totals don't lie, so why take a chance on losing money and time with how many square feet, scoops, skips and or dumps were made in loading the truck?Architects, public agencies, contractors and owner-builders requiring a competitive bid for the materials and transport costs should E-mail us with material specifications, amount and date needed and buyers contact information. We typically employ trucks with carrying capacities ranging from 17 to 26.5 tons.
