Mount Rushmore

Mount Rushmore was originally conceived as a tourist attraction for the state of South Dakota. Today it attracts an estimated 2 million people annually (Niagara Falls pulls about 12 million). If you ever decide to visit this 'memorial' try to take a route that goes through the Black Hills. This will make the trip more thrilling. Otherwise prepare yourself for the obvious... a vista point view of faces carved in rock.

It is no wonder Land Artists had a lot to talk about during the 60's.
