Return to the Lamb Spring Site
Figure 7. Ed Lewis (standing on left) and Waldo Wedel along with two fieldmen. Glenn Scott is in the excavation pit along side some jacketed mammoth bones. An overwhelming challenge was to keep the spring waters contained, drained, and pumped out of the site.
Figure 8. Glenn Scott examining the progress of plaster bandaging the mammoth bones. Tusks, pelvis and ribs are visible. The spring is active and required constant pumping to keep the site from flooding.
