- Rushmore Cave is the closest show cave to Mount Rushmore National Memorial in the United States. It contains a wide variety of natural formations. It is the ninth longest cave in South Dakota. It measures a distance of 3,652.6 feet (1,113.3 m).
The cave was created by a very long process stretching over a 360 million year time period. It started during the Mississippian Period, during which the entire Black Hills area was covered by a large inland sea. In this sea lived many kinds of sea creatures, and crustaceans. As these sea creatures died, their bodies sunk down to the sea floor. The flesh rotted away leaving behind many solid bone fragments which then compressed, and over time hardened into a rock known as limestone.
The cave has a cornucopia of rooms including the Entrance Room, Post Office, Image Room, Big Room, Fairyland, Rope Room, Geode Room, The Rouge Room (Party Room), Arrowhead Room, and the Floral Room. The cave also includes boxwork and many dripstone formations including stalactites, stalagmites, columns, helictites and flowstone.
The cave is a constant 58˚ F, (a bit chilly), and the humidity is high at 98%, giving it a damp feeling. Also the cave floor is uneven and damp. Visitors should wear sturdy, low-heeled, rubber-soled stable walking shoes. The entire tour route is illuminated with electric lights. The trail is well groomed with steps and rails for a safe and enjoyable visitor experience.
This underground tour of Rushmore Cave reveals the beautiful and amazing carvings formed by nature. Exploring the subterranean passageways will lead you to spectacular stalactite rooms and discover other natural limestone cave formations.
