Can't get into National Parks pages.
I've been trying for about a 1/2 hour. Is this some kind of Homeland Security bullshit, or is it just me? I just want to go camping, for crying out loud! Will someone else try and let me know how it goes for you?

1. I got into it.

They were down either last summer or the summer before as I recall because the system was vulnerable to attack, something to do with the Bureau of Indian Affairs' trust funds or something.

4. Going to Mt. Rushmore to look up Jefferson's nose.
Ewwwww! LOL!

I got in after clearing my cache. I'll have to stay at the Black Hills National Forest campground, there's no camping at Mt. Rushmore. Actually, though, the Black Hills park looks like a better place all around. I'm not at all into tourist traps, which is the nightmare I imagine awaits me at Mt. Rushmore. But as long as I'm living only 6 hours away, and don't intend to live here much longer, I figure I ought to see it.

3. If you still can't get into the site,
go to your state's Department of Natural Resources Web site. There should be camping info there.
