Yes, that's the official name—accurate if unimaginative. As you approach the monument, you walk through this array of the flags of all of the US states and territories.
But what interests me more in this picture is what you don't see. I expected Mount Rushmore—and really, all of the national parks we visited—to be a lot more crowded than they were on a holiday week in July. Which isn't to say that there weren't a lot of people; there just weren't as many as we expected. And I am wondering if the falloff in international travel to the US is the reason.
