Mount Rushmore
Mount Rushmore National Memorial is visited by nearly three million people each year that come to marvel at the beauty of the Black Hills of South Dakota and learn about the preservation of the country. Mount Rushmore brings visitors face to face with the rich culture we all share. Yellowstone National Park Old Faithful and the majority of the world's geysers are preserved here. They’re the main reason the park was established in 1872 as America's first national park. A mountain terrain, home to grizzly bears, wolves, and herds of bison and elk, the park is the core of one of the last natural ecosystems in the Earth’s temperate zone.
