4.2 EQ in Southern Idaho? Is Yellowstone Acting up?

I've been watching EQ's for about 2 years and this is a first for me. Maybe not others but thought it was worth a post.

Was just looking at those. Thanks.

Yellowstone having a little indigestion these days?

Peace

This is it guys, this is the big one! I've already pitched my tents and begun digging my tunnels. I have water for a week and canned tomatoes

On a serious note, is there any direct connection between the faults of S.California and Yellowstone?

Haven't felt or heard anything here in Jackson, Wy, much closer to Yellowstone (56 miles) than Soda Springs. Soda Springs is about 110 miles southwest of here and over a pass and beyond a couple of different mountain ranges from here.

Actually, I just pulled up ats because I was checking out RSOE and noticed that not only is the Island park caldera showing activity, but it has a pattern. Ive been watching for over a decade now, and have never seen a pattern. Definatly worth watching
