About South Dakota
South Dakota is famous for the scenic wonders of the Badlands, the Black Hills, and of course, Mount Rushmore. Prairie, grassland and farmland cover 90% of the state, where buffalo once ranged in herds of thousands. Dynamic historical figures like Lewis and Clark, Wild Bill Hickok, Calamity Jane, Sitting Bull, and General George Custer have all added to the colorful past of South Dakota.When Custer's military band found gold in the Black Hills in 1874, word of the discovery reached back east to Chicago, and the Gold Rush followed. By 1876, prospecting towns like Dead Tree Gulch exploded with fortune seekers lured by the glitter of gold.

Mount Rushmore National Memorial is centered on a sculpture carved into the granite face of Mount Rushmore in the Black Hills in Keystone, South Dakota. Sculptor Gutzon Borglum created the sculpture's design and oversaw the project's execution from 1927 to 1941. The sculpture features the 60-foot heads of Presidents George Washington (1732–1799), Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826), Theodore Roosevelt (1858–1919) and Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865). The four presidents were chosen to represent the nation's birth, growth, development and preservation, respectively.

“The Mammoth Site” is an active paleontological site near Hot Springs, South Dakota. The area encloses a prehistoric sinkhole that formed and was slowly filled with sediments during the Ice Age. The sedimentary fill of the sinkhole contains the remains of fauna and flora preserved by entrapment and burial within a sinkhole. This site has the greatest concentration of mammoth remains in the world.
