The blue piece shown is part of the laser display that is used for night shows. Notice the removed area near right-center, it was burned out by the torch to show how powerful the torch is and it is use to smooth the surface.	This is the blasting safety cage the men get into when blasting commences. If you look at the first picture at the top of the page, you can see this cage on the end of Crazy Horse's arm to get an ideal of the size of the arm.

Crazy Horse Mountain - July 2007 - Jill & Shermie

Jill and I stayed at Crazy Horse site for about six
hours touring the complex and buildings. Jill was
not aware that Crazy Horse Mountain even existed.

She was amazed to know this site even existed. We
look forward to visiting here again in the future and
we were very happy to have become members of the
drillers club in doing our part in continuing the dream
of Korczak in honor of the Indians spirit and culture.

"My lands are where my dead lie buried."
