Panning for Gold

James W. Marshall discovered gold on the South Fork of the American River while building a sawmill with John Sutter in 1848-the event that triggered the greatest mass movement of people in the Western Hemisphere and the spark that ignited the phenomenal growth of the West over the next few decades. Today, groups on grand California excursion can see a wonderful replica of the original sawmill and more than 20 historic buildings in an authentic ghost town. Lessons are tendered eager explorers who may then try their hand panning for gold in the scenic American River; nature enthusiasts with energy to burn will enjoy rejuvenating woodland hikes or picnics in stunning settings overlooking the picturesque river canyon, where Gold Rush Pioneer James W. Marshall rests, today. The discovery site, located in the still-visible tailrace of Sutter’s sawmill, in present day Coloma, is one of the most significant historic sites in the nation; a landmark monument to Marshall’s discovery points to where it all began. Exciting events and exhibits are scheduled throughout the year and during Living History Days visitors are treated to an entertaining and educational history lesson as the park is aflutter with lively docents dressed in period attire roaming about or manning demonstration stations featuring engaging displays of essential pioneering and woodsman skills. Guided walking tours of the 576-acre Marshall Gold Discovery State Historic Park, located 36 miles East of Sacramento on Highway 49 between Placerville and Auburn, are available year-round – every Golden State student travel itinerary should include at least a little gold panning, cuz there’s gold in them thar hills!
