Mount Rushmore National Park
Can anyone tell me if you can drive a class A motor home into Mount Rushmore National Park where you can see the monument?

Highway 16 or 16A has four tunnels that are lined up directly with the monument, and always attract a huge crowd at tunnel #1 and #4 (the first one from the other direction). Stop at 2 or 3, they all have similar views, but not in a huge motorhome. I was in my car. There are bypass roads. I was following a very slow car up the hill, after the nighttime fireworks, going back to Custer State Park, and took the bypass in my Honda CRV, passing the slow car.
From the parking lot, top level, you can find the tunnels. I knew about where they where, and a straight line of 'missing' trees, lead to the tunnels, as the sun was coming up on the other side of the mountain in the morning. .
When leaving the parking area, if in a car, go to the right about 1/4 mile, you can park a few minutes in the tiny lot, and get a side shot of Washington!
