About

These enduring ruins paint an evocative picture of the limestone harvesting practices as they prevailed here in the 1880s. Limestones extracted from a nearby canyon were processed in the furnaces embedded in these kilns to produce high-quality lime. Visitors can admire these towering vestiges which elicit a sense of wonder and awe, their remains harking back to an eventful past.
