If you are talking about who climb the mountain first to set all the anchors for the rope and cables so that work could begin on the carving of Mount Rushmore, than that answer is John Martin Kellsy Jr. Born 1904 - 1991

Many of the workers were afraid of heights. Kellsy however was not, he was known for doing stunts like walking on his hand along the very top of the Hotel Alex Johnson Hotel in Rapid City South Dakota. He work on many projects through out the Black Hill, such as the old bridge that used to take you into Hill City.
