Description
As part of our "My Other Park" series, shake the winter blues by taking an "armchair" visit to other national parks, guided by three different Rangers who worked at these other units within the National Park Service. Decide if you want to add a new park to your bucket list!
Mount Rushmore National Memorial is one of the most iconic roadside attractions in the U.S. The four monumental presidents' faces have graced everything from key chains to license plates. But why was it constructed and why were the Black Hills of South Dakota chosen as its location? What was each president intended to represent and what is really buried below the Hall of Records? Join a former Mount Rushmore National Park Ranger to learn more!
