    Thanks for the memories. I first saw Crazy Horse in 1965 when I was only five years old. Back than all you saw was some scaffolding on top of a mountain. Than when I was in the Air Force I was able to hike the mountain several times between 1986 and 1991. Unfortunately I had to take a 20 pound camcorder with me instead of the light weight camera you had😉 but it was worth it I was able to watch the face of Crazy Horse being completed! From 1991 to now they have made lots of progress on the arm. Many people think the progress on the mountain is too slow but when you compare the original mountain to where they are now you realize how much rock that had to be removed just so they can get to the point where the final carving could actually start! For a size comparison Mount Rushmore carving would fit inside Crazy Horse’s head. Mount Rushmore was built with government funding (but it was never finished to the original design), Crazy Horse is being built with only private donations and it’s the worlds largest carving! The next several years will be exciting as more and more of the finished carving emerge from the mountain.

      I’m happy it brought back those memories. It would be really neat to see it change so much over the decades!!

    My Uncle Ray Hiatt filmed this project in 1949 when they were first starting. Back then we failed to make copies of the filming...wish we did. Thanks !

    Looks like a great visit. Your Hoelderle blood showed by your short sleeves while others had on coats and layers ; ) Favorite line was "Now we just need to climb up there!". Loved the suggestion to bring money to support local organizations.

    Great! I walked the Volks march in 2018 when there was mist and clouds so we didn't have the spectaculare view. Buy...I've been there! I started around ten, when the most people here already started. It was a geest experience! Greetings from the Netherlands
