Hi Little Miss Miserable. Glad to see you’re doing better. Pincushion Peak you say. I have done some hunting in that area. It is some pretty rugged country. It is just a little ways north of Mono Hot Springs. Nice place to take a bath, but the food is a little pricey. Did a quake search of your selected area and found an interesting sequence of quakes. All of the quakes below occurred in the area of Double Peak, which is a little ways northeast of Pincushion Peak. The quakes occurred in an area of less then 5 miles. Have no idea as to the significance of the quakes. They appear to have occurred over a 40 year period and then suddenly stopped. Based on the six quakes it does appear they have a 20 year or so cycle in which they occur. I do have a problem with the quakes that occurred in 1962 and 1963. I have a little trouble with two quakes one year apart, but occurring at the exact same time although at a different location. Not impossible, but highly improbable. Take Care…Don in creepy town catalog=ANSS start_time=1898/01/01,00:00:00 end_time=2005/10/19,07:21:10 minimum_magnitude=4.0 maximum_magnitude=10 event_type=E delta=0 km to 16 km from (37.4727,-119.1105) Date Time Lat Lon Depth Mag Magt Nst Gap Clo RMS SRC Event ID ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1939/04/03 07:10:00.00 37.4500 -119.0000 4.00 un BK š 1940/07/08 10:57:40.00 37.4500 -119.0000 5.00 un BK 1962/11/06 11:57:20.40 37.5200 -119.0200 4.00 ML 20 BK 1963/11/06 11:57:20.40 37.5167 -119.0167 0.00 4.00 ML 0 0.00 CI 0 1979/06/16 22:44:59.51 37.5467 -118.9755 19.73 4.03 Md 212 160 90 0.24 NC -1046213 1980/03/20 11:05:43.77 37.5827 -119.0328 21.31 4.58 Md 23 268 89 0.19 NC -1051645
