Mount Rushmore consists of 60 foot granite sculptors of four United States of America’s presidents. Gutzon Borglum and his son, Lincoln Borglum, started the sculptor in 1927 and the work ended in 1941. To stand at the base of this amazing work of art, it’s hard to imagine how something this large could be sculpted using tools of that period. Situated in the Black Hills of South Dakota, there are many things to see and do. Share your tips, photos, favorite places to see, campgrounds for RVs and tents, or great places to eat.
