I haven't been this year but are hoping to swing by there this weekend. If you did get your dive in, let me know how it was. I would love an update. I posted last year looking for info in July but noone seemed to have an answer for me. Our dive didn't pan out tho so it was no biggie. Unfortunate you didn't get an aswer either

WOW --- Sherkston Quarry!!!
I spent a couple of years up in Buffalo, NY, over 30 years ago, and we used to drive up to the quarry to go swimming. I don't believe there was any diving at the time. I seem to remember one side having a sheer wall of rock, and a shore on the opposite side. At the time, it also had a few diving platforms (diving diving, as opposed to scuba diving), set at two or three different heights.
This thread is the *first* time I've seen mention of the quarry in 30 years...
I used to wear a beautiful hunk of marbled turqoise around my neck, on a length of rawhide, that I found, polished, and set myself in Arizona. Lost it doing flips off that sheer wall into the quarry... So, if any of y'all happen to find it at the bottom of that wall, let me know!
