It's been 50 years since the first "Big Dig" at Tule Springs, and archaeologists are still making new discoveries. We'll talk to an orginal crew member from 1962-1963, and a geologist who studies the area for UNLV. They'll tell us what we've learned from Tule Springs, and why it's an important archaeological site.
