Crazy Horse Memorial
This spectacular mountain sculpture is the largest man has ever attempted -- destined to become the 8th Wonder of the Modern World.  Sculptor Korczak Ziolkowski began blasting on this mountain in 1948.  Today, his wife and children continue his dream of creating a memorial dedicated to all North American Indians.  When completed, the sculpture will be taller than the highest pyramid in Egypt and higher than the Washington Monument in Washington, DC.  The face alone is nearly 9-stories high.  The horse's head will be about 22-stories high!

Crazy Horse Blast
Dust begins to settle after a blast in front of  what will become the horse's head on Crazy Horse Mountain.  When finished the statue will be 563 feet high and 641 feet long.  Crews work on the mountain year-round, with blasting occurring about 2-3 times a week.
Visitors can enjoy a 20-minute DVD movie prior to checking out the extensive art work and artifacts in the huge visitor's center, museum, the original log cabin home built in 1949, Korczak's workshop and studio, and the Native American Cultural Center.  This is a "must-see" attraction on your Black Hills visit.
