Yeah they are definitely a good time. Biggest drop isn't huge only like 25-30 but lots of running room and lots of different options. This video will show you the main rock everyone jumps off. https://www.newschoolers.com/membervideo/311363.0/MN-Quarry-Edit?s=140605&t=2&o=8

From a former platform diver and college diver, yes, it's worth it.  I bring a group a few times every summer; our last outing was a couple weeks ago.  The highest spot (low 20s) isn't crazy, but is big enough to have a great time.  There are tons of jumping spots at every level below that too.  It's also very deep (safe) and legal.  I like late morning the best, when the sun is shining on the bigger cliffs and before it gets crowded.  Hot afternoons are sometimes busy, but not enough to ruin it.
