We decided to skip our lunch stop on this day and instead climb to the top of Mount Rushmore. I made it 1.75 miles before I just ran out of energy and walked the last quarter of a mile to the monument in granite. Here I am in front of this amazing structure honoring Presidents Washington, Jefferson, Roosevelt and Lincoln. Any idea why Jefferson's head is tipped to the air more than the others? (Had they not tipped his head back some his nose would have been built over a huge crack that would have fallen apart quickly when weakened by sculpturing!). This day was 89 miles!
