Cooper’s quarry starts on the left, riding the Que trail clockwise from the Conemaugh township parking lot, a short distance (~0.1 mi) east of Lemons Road. There is a rock trail feature at the entrance. Starting out you will do a small climb before crossing Lemons road which leads to a steeper switch back climb. Once on top you will encounter a rocky technical section with some huge rock trail features to play on followed by a flowy downhill with numerous grade reversals. You will come to the intersection of Clark’s quarry to the right, continue sharp left on Cooper’s quarry a very short distance to the other Clark’s quarry intersection, turn sharp left on Cooper’s quarry, following a creek on your right to you arrive back on the Que trail on the west side of Lemons road and the Conemaugh township parking area. This trail is rated more difficult. It is more technical, with a few more rocks and with some trail features as options.
