This past weekend a series of small earthquakes have been hitting the Government Camp area with up to 30 quakes from a magnitude of .3 to the largest at 2.3 on the Richter scale. Residents have not been able to feel the quakes but scientists are paying attention because this is a new fault that they were not aware of. This fault is now on the Pacific Northwest Seismic Network list of faults to watch. This map is direct from the PNSN website showing the location of the mini-quakes.
