George Washington represents the birth of the country, Thomas Jefferson the expansion of the nation, Abe Lincoln the preservation of the Union and Theodore Roosevelt represents the development of the country.

Maybe because it's a museum and they want to see it from the inside and or they would like to travel and go to different places.

The original detractors of the Mount Rushmore project might have a different view of it today due to its modern significance to the country. Mount Rushmore has become a landmark and is one of the most famous sites in the country.

Melted Cheese, this helps to cool the volcanic activity located at the bottom of Mount Rushmore. Hope this helps

Periodically, people -- including some legislators -- propose adding a fifth face to Mount Rushmore. This talk is (well) just talk -- adding another face would be geologically impossible and could never pass Congress.

There are four presidents carved in Mount Rushmore National Memorial: George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Abe Lincoln and Theodore Roosevelt.

Master sculptor Gutzon Borglum wanted the massive carving to represent the meaning of America. The four presidents were carefully chosen to be part of Mount Rushmore. George Washington represents the birth of the country, Thomas Jefferson the expansion of the nation, Abe Lincoln the preservation of the Union and Theodore Roosevelt represents the development of the country.

The Park Service has a special team that repairs Mt. Rushmore because cracks develop in the rock and they have to repair it.

The idea for carvings in the Black Hills in South Dakota came from Doane Robinson, South Dakota's State Historian. Doane invited Gutzon Borglum to the Black Hills in South Dakota to discuss his idea and see if Gutzon would be interested in doing the carvings.

On his second visit, Gutzon Borglum found Mount Rushmore and agreed to do the carving and Doane Robinson agreed to work to fund the project.

Doane Robinson is known as the "Father of Mount Rushmore." It was his idea for colossal carvings in the Black Hills. He wanted to create an attraction that would draw people from all over the country to his state. In August of 1924 he contacted Gutzon Borglum who was working at Stone Mountain, GA on the face of Robert E. Lee. In his letter Robinson invited Borglum to visit South Dakota and talk over the possibility of carving a mountain. Borglum took Robinson up on his offer and met with him during September of 1924 and again in August of 1925. During this second trip Borglum found Mount Rushmore. From that point on Robinson worked diligently to secure funding for the project. Doane Robinson's idea was a success.

Mount Rushmore is a natural granite batholith formation of rock in the Black Hills in Keystone, South Dakota, United States.
Between October 4, 1927, and October 31, 1941, Gutzon Borglum and 400 workers sculpted the colossal 60 foot (18 m) high carvings of U.S. presidents George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt, and Abraham Lincoln to represent the first 130 years of American history.

Hoover Dam gave men jobs. It was built during the depression and thousands of men and their families came to work. It took less than 5 years and today it is a national historic landmark. Mount Rushmore took 14 years to finish and was done by Gutzon Borglum. Today 3 million people visit the monument. It cost 989,992.32 to build and 90% of the heads are carved with dynamite. To work on it he needed men who could work in stone, dynamite, work with jackhammers, and other equipment hanging over the side of a mountain. The workers even had a baseball team.
