Four presidential faces carved into granite that took fourteen years to finish, a badlands landscape nearby that looks like the moon had a rock formation phase, and a motorcycle rally each August that briefly doubles the local population.

The best time to visit The Black Hills & Mount Rushmore is May–Sep, when typical daytime highs reach about 29°C (84°F).
