South Dakota is Monument and National Park Rich

The Crazy Horse Memorial was the dream of Chief Henry Standing Bear, a Lakota Chief, who wanted the sculpture to serve to create cross-cultural understanding and to mend relations between Natives and non-natives. He invited sculptor Korczak Ziolkowski to carve the memorial. Ziolkowski originally came to the Black Hills to help  Gutzon Borglum on Mount Rushmore. It is the world’s largest mountain carving in progress – entirely privately funded. When in  South Dakota you will not want to miss this spiritual location.
