pikes peak
t1.jpg more mammoths. they evidently fell into a hot spring over the years that filled up over time...the sides were too steep to get out, and there they all were when a bulldozer came to clear an 'unsightly hump ' of ground t2.jpg pronghorn t3.jpg crazy horse, about 40 years to finish it. t4.jpg titanothere, that once roamed north america. if you look close at his feet, there's an alligator. they were a lot smaller then, and lived in south dakota! t5.jpg

that's a line up of skulls, with the now extinct short faced bear on the far right. a polar wouldn't stand a chance...
b3.jpg that's the two types of mammoths to show size. on the left is the wooly, on the right is the colombian. all but three found so far in that pit, which is still an active dig, have been the much larger colombian-which makes an african elephant look small. b4.jpg they are keeping the bones where they find them, as they find them, because they're so fragile. they aren't fossilized, but are the actual bones..

i guess we should have gone to rushmore first. because after seeing crazy horse, it looks very small-and it is a lot smaller!
the saying on the bottom of the crazy horse statue....when he was with the soldiers, one snidely asked him where are your lands now? and that's when he pointed and said where my people lay. no state or federal money is going to that monument. it's all by donations, sales at the shop, etc.
