What passes to the park do we need to purchase in advance?

No need to buy anything in advance for Mt. Rushmore. Just drive up to the parking structure. They charge per car. Your receipt will allow you to return (in the same car) as many times as you want for one year.
There are no buses, trams, etc at Mt. Rushmore. It's all done with your feet. Make sure you do the walking trail that goes to the base of the monument.
Also, be sure you see Custer State Park and either Wind Cave or Jewel Cave while in the Black Hills. How many days will you be in the area? You do know that the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally is during the first week of August?
