With its majestic landscapes, diverse wildlife, and a history spanning 14,000 years, Anderson Marsh State Historic Park is the home of the Koi people who were the first humans to colonize the area and who are still there to this day. Their deep cultural heritage prompted the struggles to protect the amazing resources that the park holds. Native inhabitants were pushed out particularly from the 1850s. The Grigsby brothers built a farm here in the mid 1850s. It was purchased by Scottish immigrant Anderson in 1885 whose descendants sold it in the 1960s to become a state park. https://www.parks.ca.gov/?page_id=483 Guides can point out petroglyphs along Mash Trail.
