Protectors of Tule Springs

The Upper Las Vegas Wash, AKA Tule Springs, needs to be preserved and protected for future generations.

It is an area that contains hundreds of identified fossil sites of ancient Ice Age animals such as mammoths, ground sloths, camels and bison, as well as native primitive peoples.

It is also one of the last remaining areas where one can find the Bear-Paw Poppy and the Las Vegas Buckwheat, which are endangered plant species.

We don't need another housing development, strip mall or highway in this area, yet, there are those who would do that, if we let them. The Protectors of Tule Springs will not let them. We are the Public Residents of this area.

We want to create an Ice Age Park with a visitor center, hiking trails, picnic areas and study areas, so that adults and children alike can learn and marvel at the natural wonders of Tule Springs.

We are ready to be stewards of this land that will be World renowned in Paleontological circles, a must see tourist attraction and an area that Nevadans can take pride in having preserved.

You can help us in that endeavor at: www.tulespringslv.com
