Crazy Horse




We visited the Crazy Horse Monument which is Ginormous. They have Crazy Horses face done and have a nice museum and video we watched explaining the whole concept:

Sculptor Korczak Ziolkowski and Lakota Chief Henry Standing Bear officially started Crazy Horse Memorial June 3, 1948. The Memorial's mission is to honor the culture, tradition and living heritage of North American Indians.


Kind of strange they had a Polish guy doing the sculpture. (Joke here somewhere) We thought its great the sculpters family has taken up the project with no goverment help. (they have been offered money but refuse it) They have 10 kids I think and only 3 arent involved anymore.
