From 9500 ft elevation to 18,000 ft? That’s not going to bother anybody. I don’t have a sectional chart of Grand Forks handy but I’m guessing nobody really cares about that corridor anyway? But If I was going that way I guess an F-18 jockey wouldn’t mind showing me they way thru.

Translate this please into a mapped area of the country— all I can get is Grand Forks... which is South Dakota, but the 11 Nautical mile circle does not intersect over Mt Rushmore . So, is the airspace over Mt Rushmore closed....?!! Nutso.
