Rushmore, Black Hills & Big Horn

Today has been packed. In the morning we stopped at Mt Rushmore. What a ridiculously American thing. Pretty impressive actually. Did you know that there is a room behind Lincoln's head that was blasted into the rock that was intended to be used for secure document storage!? Pretty weird!

From there we set out towards Yellowstone, driving through Black Hills and Big Horn National Forests. This was probably the most picturesque part of our journey thus far. Truly impressive.

We're still driving and should get to Yellowstone about 8pm Mountain Time. More to come...
