Geocache Description:

This is Tunnel 1 in a series of three tunnels. The original roadway to Mt. Rushmore was designed with three tunnels that framed the monument. The first was named on August 1, 2015 to "Doane Robinson", the man who came up with the idea of carving sculptures in the Black Hills as a tourist attraction. These tunnels are found on Iron Mountain Road - US16A. This road may be closed for parts of the winter.

There is parking next to the tunnel. Depending on which direction you are coming from, you will be able to see Mt. Rushmore through the tunnel. The cache is a short distance from the parking area. You will end up on top of the tunnel. This is not a place for small or young children. Be careful of muggles as they like to take pictures of Mt. Rushmore just like we did! Please hide cache well after finding it! Good luck caching!
