OVERVIEW
The sandstone strata at the summit of Muddy Creek Mountain is renowned as a dimensional stone. Medium-grained, multi-colored, and hard, it has been used for more than a generation for slab and block construction. Builders and designers notably appreciate its durability and color, which varies from pink to rose to red and white.
That durability has resulted in its popularity in construction, and given its broad color spectrum and high polishability, the stone has been popular as a finish in many residences, notably in the Greenbrier and Kanawha valleys.
