They do get rid of alot of the rock at the base.I have 2 pieces of it as bookends in my house.There are a several big wooden boxes close to the exits that they fill each day with the rocks and they are free.When we were there I met Ruth Ziolkowski,the wife of Korczak Ziolkowski,and her daughter Ann who has since passed away.A couple from Rapid City had made a multi-million dollar donation to the foundation and that day there was a blast on the mountain.The foundation doesn't take any money from the Gov't because they don't want to be under any types of pressure or influence from the Gov't.. because they rely soley on donations,the work is slow.
I also got to meet Ed Mcgaa while I was there.He is a full blooded Oglala Soiux Indian who was also a fighter pilot in the Viet Nam war and Flew over 100 missions.He Wrote a book about Crazy Horse that is a very good read.
The North American Indian museum is also at the site and it takes about 2 hours to go through if you look at all of their displays.My property is the site on one of the British Military encampments during Dunmores War (1774) and I've been very interested in Indian history for many years now so visiting Crazyhorse Mountain was a special stop.

VERY cool Jeff. Some of those shot look almost like they were taken from the air. Impressive landscape out there. I love the rivers.
