Lytle Creek, where all the gang bangers go to shoot...Leaving behind their targets...Junk stoves, microwaves, TVs, computers...Last time I was there is looked like a junk yard full of shot up junk...

There wasn't any junk when I went there , but that was decades ago, when it was a long way from any gang-infested areas.

When Japan, who is basically across the ocean from California, had her quake the other day I wondered how long it would be before California got one.

I don’t know if they are related because I do not know the oceanography of the tectonic plates between the two of them but I do wonder and I wonder if there will be a bigger one soon after.

mentioned that this quake was in the vicinity of the san andreas fault line

It's right there, and crosses the 15 fwy at the Cajon Pass/Lytle Creek, right next to the San Andreas fault...

Watch for possible massive aftershocks...Ya never know.

Well, I did find a map of the tectonic plates. I'm just thinking displacement and the the Pacific plate moves over a bit. It's all my own thoughts.

I felt the Earth move under my feet

Red line is the San Andreas..

Maybe a massive one will shake the hobos away but I doubt it

There mare a few public ranges out there. I went to a private range. Gated / locked with written check in. I believe it is called West End Gun Club. You can only attend with a paying member. Often after heavy rain it is not accessible as you literally have to cross Lytle Creek to get there on an unpaved road.

“I felt the earthquake here in North Orange County.”

Same here, same location. It was only a small quick jolt where I live.

[Vaquero]

It’s caused by the weight of human waste in LA and Frisco.

“I was driving so I didn’t feel a thing.”

I remember driving during an earthquake.
I was heading north on the 405 passing Santa Monica and Wilshire Boulevards.
I could see the bushes along the freeway swaying back-and-forth and I remember thinking “wow, if the wind is blowing this hard down here,
how bad could it be near my house in the northern San Fernando Valley?”
The Santa Anna winds are a lot stronger in the valley.
Got home and the wind was not blowing. I forgot all about it.
Later, I heard it was an earthquake.

I’ve camped there.

I was in California once.🙂

We had on on Jan1 at 8:27 4.1 going to get more active soon?.

[Beowulf9]

That is some long line.

California tumbles into the sea. That’ll be the day I go
back to Annandale.

[Pox]

Noticed nothing here in San Diego North County.

[TChad]

Ha!

I have missed small California earthquakes. An earthquake resets your day.

Stick to your day job.

I hear Chicago is a great outdoor shooting range, especially for the ‘bros’, guys like LaQuisionique and Tyrone.
