Mount Rushmore National Memorial

Sculptor Gutzon Borglum created this famous mountainside carving of the visages of four great American presidents: George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln and Theodore Roosevelt.

Always near the top of my bucket list, it was truly an awe inspiring experience walking down the avenue of flags of the states and getting to view Mount Rushmore. A must see for any American or even any fan of history and art. The carved out heads are larger than life and truly spectacular. I highly recommend hiking the half mile presidential trail loop as it offers glimpses of the presidents from different angles and provides some information about the presidents as well.

Tatanka: Story of the Bison

Reviewed By 741PamelaD

We visited on August 23rd. The cultural interpreter was a Lakota gentleman who spoke for an hour and we could have listened another hour! He was extremely informative and personable. Then we walked the grounds and viewed the extraordinary life-size bronze sculptures depicting a "buffalo drop". They alone are worth the visit.

Do yourself a favor and go see this hidden gem in the Black Hills! Seth Bullock had this tower built in honor of his best friend, President Roosevelt! When Seth died, he was buried facing it .... Clear across the town .....it's an easy hike to get to and you can climb to the top for a breathtaking view! Don't miss it
