Crazy Horse is staring down four presidents of the United States.
I ve boarded a battered yellow school bus that will bring tourists to the base of the mountain where the legendary Lakota leader is being carved in granite â a massive work in progress going on decades. The purpose of this monument is to honor all North American Indians, our otherwise jocular bus driver intones.
We deboard, and I peer up at the carving, which is an active construction site. From here, the stark details of Crazy Horse s face are perfectly clear. At 70 feet high, that visage is much larger than any of the presidents on Mount Rushmore. The outlines of the future completed monument â his body, his flowing hair, his horse â are faintly discernible.
