It basically hit my old desert camp and shoot spot behind Calico Ghost Town hills. Tourists got more than just a mine ride today.

Quote HistoryQuoted: [Yawn]...survived 71 Sylmar quake in Granada Hills. I sure felt that one even though I was a considerable distance from the epicenter. I was eating breakfast alone while my parents and brother were sleeping - I had an early morning music class and had to be on the bus by about 6:30 AM. The ground motion was slow and smooth, and kept going for a LONG time. A hanging lamp over the dining room table swung for several minutes. According to the Wikipedia article only three people were directly killed, all at a hospital. Two died due to failure of equipment, one had stuff fall on him. Some others died of heart attacks. That could have been a lot worse, and if it happens again it probably will be. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1971_San_Fernando_earthquake |

It's not just the moving, it's when the previously solid ground underneath you suddenly feels not so solid anymore and it feels more like you're standing on top of a boat with the freaky wavy movements that makes the ground underneath feel like water.

Can you imagine being in one of those little mine shaft touristy things they have at Calico and the earth start shaking? Earthquakes don’t bother me much. Neither do hurricanes for that matter, but if I was in a mine I might start to run towards the light pretty quick. |
