20 Reasons We Love South Dakota

Mount Rushmore is just the first on a long, diverse list of things to see and do in this state, rich with history and natural beauty.

Crazy Horse Memorial

Ruth Ziolkowski (wife of the late Korczak, who in 1948 began carving the image of Crazy Horse astride a horse) and seven of their 10 children continue the work on this massive sculpture, not accepting any government money to do so. A spacious visitors center tells the story of the carving with a short film and celebrates Native American life and culture with exhibits and displays. A large outdoor deck has great views of Crazy Horse Memorial and a restaurant (try the Native American tacos). (605) 673-4681; crazyhorsememorial.org
