Maybe I'm using the wrong term, but the controller referred to it as
restricted. 700' vertical, 2000' horizontal... What should it be called?

I flew up to Rapid City today and asked approach to vector me as close
as
they could to Mt. Rushmore. They were very friendly, cautioned me about
the
restricted area around the monument, and vectored and suggested
altitudes
to
get as close as was reasonably possible without risking getting busted.
Did
a nice job. (Still not a great view. Really need to land to see the
faces
well.)


A Restricted Area around Mt. Rushmore? That sounds dangerous to me, and
harmful to the monument too.
