Mount Rushmore

Spent the morning yesterday at Mount Rushmore.  The idea of putting gigantic faces on a mountain is pretty insane.  As you can see from the pictures, the approach we took from the south gives you awesome looks before you arrive.  There are a series of single lane tunnels that frame the mountain as you pass through.  The mountain itself has a huge visitors center, overrun with bikers on this particular day because Sturgis ended on Friday.  Picture a huge crowd of aging baby boomer "outlaw bikers" wearing a lot of leather.
