It cost us $20 for the two of us, but before you say "That's too expensive to see a big rock" remember that this project is entirely privately funded. The memorial does not accept government funding and relies on admissions and donations.
The first thing we did upon arrival was watch a short film about the history of the memorial, which I found very informative and inspiring. We walked around the museum which showcases a lot of Native American history. The gift shop is huge and we had fun looking around to find the perfect thing to take home. We settled on a few postcards, a pen for me to use at work, and a wooden Christmas tree ornament.

It was rather windy when we went but still really enjoyed it. I liked seeing the models for the finished product. Jared was there about ten years ago and was amazed how much work they've done since then. Maybe in ten or fifteen years we'll bring our kids there...
More soon on our Dakotas trip!
love and coffee,
Lulu

We went there several years ago. I thought it was worth the price. There was really a lot to see.
I'm glad you are enjoying the vacation that you went on in the Black Hills, hope you can make it back again someday.
