South Dakota
One of the more quixotic national monuments, located near Keystone, South Dakota, Mt. Rushmore depicts the likeness of four former US presidents, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt, and Abraham Lincoln, carved into the granite walls of the Black Hills.
Sitting Bull, Tom Brokaw, George McGovern, and Wild Bill Hickock, are well-known South Dakotans. In addition to being the native state of Mary Hart, South Dakota boasts the world’s only Corn Palace in the town of Mitchell.
