Taken: July 4, 2008
Caption: Sutter's Landing Park
Additional Description: The actual site where Sutter landed, as well as the original location of the marker, are located in Sutter's Landing Park. In 1989 the marker was moved roughly 2,000 feet south to Fremont Park. The tall cylindrical objects in the left of the picture are related to the collection of natural gas - Sutter's Landing was used as a landfill for decades, and consequently there is still an amount of methane being produced as a byproduct of landfill decomposition.
