Tips from the community
The iconic sculpture of four former presidents carved into the granite face of Mount Rushmore in the Black Hills has become a symbol of freedom and hope, making it a fitting place to visit on Independence Day. There won’t be fireworks at Mount Rushmore, but there will be presidential reenactors of George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, and Theodore Roosevelt roaming the national park, posing for photos and giving out autographs. The National Park Service requires visitors who are not fully vaccinated to wear a face mask outside on NPS-managed lands where physical distancing cannot be maintained and in all federal buildings.
