10/3/2019 Headed down through Keystone to the Mount Rushmore NMem; not many people yet but steadily increasing. Unfortunately, the main viewing area was closed for construction, but we got some good views from the VC area, then walked down a short trail to another area with better views, with a deep blue sky background.
