Mount Rushmore and Crazy Horse in South Dakota

MOUNT RUSHMORE




Another well know National Park in the USA is Mount Rushmore. Most Americans are familiar with it but relatively few have visited. It's very patriotic as well as inspiring with its 4 president's heads carved in granite at 5500 feet above sea level.






CRAZY HORSE MEMORIAL



There is another memorial about 17 miles from Mount Rushmore to memorialize an American Indian hero named Crazy Horse. It's a work still in progress after being started in 1948 and nobody at the site will give a completion date.
