In an earlier post, I mentioned that the creator of the Mt Rushmore sculpture was LDS.
One thing that I thought was interesting was that he wanted to create a hall of records up there in the vertical slab behind Lincoln's head. In solid granite. It would have been able to hold a lot of stuff. I would love to know what his motivation would have been for that. It would have survived most anything.
Here is some more info on this:

It was never finished as they ran out of funds before it could be done.
