Brief History of Mt. Rushmore
This history dates back to the 1920s when Doane Robinson, a South Dakota historian, wished to draw more tourists to the Black Hills. At first, he wanted to carve some of the nation's most famous heroes into 'The Needles', a couple of granite pillars in the area. Robinson contacted Gutzon Borglum for the task and ultimately, they chose the current site for the sculpture after searching for a while. They chose the four men: Washington, Lincoln, Jefferson, and Roosevelt to draw national attention to the site. Raising money for the project was not an easy task; many people did not like that they would be desecrating the natural landscape. Finally, a bill was passed to give $250,000 to the project. 400 workers helped with the sculpting, including Native Americans. The project took many years due to lack of funding over time. It was finished on October 31, 1941.

"THIS IS A LESURELY WALK,"
This offers a real close up, with even more in-depth analysis then the rushmore-black hills tour. This is a lesurely walk, great photo ops. If you've got kids, they'll sleep well at days end.

"Clear and very informative."
Clear and very informative. Often didn't find the markers to match the talk and were either ahead or behind but it worked out ok.

✓ Verified Traveler"This is the greatest way for people who are slowing down in life"
This is the greatest way for people who are slowing down in life, to enjoy a tour at their own pace. And the headphone feature lets one decide just how loud to experience all the facts and fun about the area.

"Easy to use"
Easy to use and most ticketed areas knew the tickets. We were not delayed getting the walking tour of rushmore but the ticket agent had no idea what the printed ticket was.
