Well, considering how many offshoots and parallel faults there are around the San Andreas, I think it's reasonable to suppose that any large strike/slip system is going to be similar, especially around the kinks and bends.

But, there's probably not enough people and infrastructure (ie $$$$) to worry about in Alaska to make finding them all worth the effort.
