Since it's enactment in 1872, Yellowstone National Park continues to be America's most beloved park as nearly 3 million visitors a year will attest.

Located in the heart of the Rocky Mountains, Yellowstone National Park is known for its steaming geysers, crystalline lakes, thundering waterfalls, and panoramic vistas, is one of our country's most frequently visited national parks. No matter how many times you return to Yellowstone you will always find something new and different to enjoy in this 2.2 million-acre wonderland of scenery, wildlife and geologic wonders that exist nowhere else in the world. The park unveils a stunning array of mountain peaks, 76 of which reach elevations of 12,000 feet or more. Forests of spruce and fir tower over wide valleys where aspen and willow line meandering streams. At the highest elevations, above the tree line, is the fascinating, arctic-like alpine tundra, fraught wit. "This is a beautiful world, and all who go out under the open sky will feel the gentle, kindly influence of nature and hear her good tidings," wrote Enos Mills, a dedicated naturalist whose vision and determination helped to save this spectacular land.

Mount Rushmore National Memorial, located 23 miles southwest of Rapid City, is something you don't want to miss. It's one of the greatest attractions in the US!

The mountain itself was originally named after Charles E. Rushmore, a New York lawyer investigating mining claims in the Black Hills in 1885. Gutzon Borglum chose this mountain due to its height (5700' above sea level), the soft grainy consistency of the granite, and the fact that it catches the sun for the greatest part of the day. The presidents were selected on the basis of what each symbolized. George Washington represents the struggle for independence, Thomas Jefferson the idea of government by the people. Abraham Lincoln for his ideas on equality and the permanent union of the states, and Theodore Roosevelt for the 20th century role of the United States in world affairs. The total cost of the project was $900,000. The granite faces of four American presidents' is scaled to men who would stand 465 feet tall! President Calvin Coolidge believed Mount Rushmore was "decidedly American in its conception, magnitude and meaning. It is altogether worthy of our country," Coolidge proclaimed at the dedication of the project in 1927. Each man possessed great skills and leadership of the brand our nation needed for the times. Today millions of visitors come to see Mount Rushmore and gain inspiration from these four great men.
