Discover the artist and the man, Gutzon Borglum! An exciting tour for the whole family! Venture into the world of Gutzon Borglum, the sculptor of Mount Rushmore, from the blasting of the stone to the grandeur of the "Seated Lincoln." The Borglum Story will enable children and adults to step back and become part of the carving years.

To understand the significance of Mt. Rushmore you must first visit the Rushmore Borglum Story. You will be amazed that Gutzon Borglum excelled in so many fields.

On your tour you will meet the artist, his family and the famous people who were his friends. Stand with your family alongside the full-sized eye of Lincoln, an exact replica of the eye on the mountain. (Children gaze in awe as the eye towers over them.)

Step back in time as our exclusive film, narrated by Senator Tom Daschle, takes you and Borglum to the top of the monument on the cable car.

Catch your breath as Borglum and his crew work on the face of the monument in bosuns' seats hung from thin cables. You will think you are there as you view the actual blasting of the granite

This is truly an entertaining, exciting and informative tour for the whole family. Visit the museum to get the full Rushmore experience, and explore his other accomplishments.

Discover what motivated Gutzon Borglum - why he began at age 60 what men half his age wouldn't attempt.
