1. Your winter adventure begins at one of America’s most iconic landmarks, Mount Rushmore National Memorial. In the colder months, this place feels quieter, calmer, and almost cinematic, with crisp mountain air, snow-dusted pine trees, and far fewer crowds than summer. You’ll have time to take in the full view of the 60-foot granite faces of George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt, and Abraham Lincoln from the Grand View Terrace, where the monument stretches across the mountainside like something out of a storybook. Inside the visitor area, you can browse exhibits that share the fascinating history behind the monument, including how it was carved into the rock and the engineering challenges that made it possible. You're guide will fill you in on many of the stories behind the building of Mount Rushmore.

Inside, you’ll have time to explore the Indian Museum of North America, featuring authentic artifacts, artwork, and displays from tribes across the continent.

About Rapid City

Rapid City is the gateway to South Dakota's Black Hills, close to Mount Rushmore, Crazy Horse Memorial, Custer State Park and the Badlands.

Rapid City sits where the Black Hills meet the Great Plains in western South Dakota, on the banks of Rapid Creek. Life-size bronze statues of American presidents stand on the street corners of the downtown, and Dinosaur Park, a hilltop with concrete dinosaurs built in the 1930s, looks over the city. The Black Hills, called Paha Sapa by the Lakota, are sacred to them and rise as dark, pine-covered uplands.
