Rapid City: Gateway to the Black Hills and Home to the B-1 Bomber
Rapid City sits at the eastern edge of the Black Hills, roughly 25 miles northeast of Mount Rushmore. The mountain monument, carved into granite by Gutzon Borglum and his crew between 1927 and 1941, draws around two million visitors annually, and most of them pass through Rapid City on the way in or out. The Journey Museum downtown pulls together geology, paleontology, and Lakota history in a single building on New York Street.
Ellsworth Air Force Base sits 12 miles east of the city at Box Elder. Ellsworth hosts the 28th Bomb Wing, which operates B-1B Lancer supersonic bombers, and the base remains one of the largest employers in western South Dakota. The South Dakota Air and Space Museum, just outside the main gate, displays retired aircraft including a B-52 Stratofortress and a Minuteman missile silo that visitors can tour below ground.
Dignity, a 50-foot stainless-steel statue on a bluff above Interstate 90 near Chamberlain, was commissioned by sculptor Dale Lamphere as a tribute to the Lakota and Dakota peoples. Within Rapid City proper, the City of Presidents walking tour places life-sized bronze statues of every former U.S. president at downtown street corners. Pennington County covers roughly 2,776 square miles and extends west into the Black Hills National Forest toward the Wyoming border.
