San Felipe Fault Zone information


San Felipe fault system located in Southern California

The San Felipe Fault Zone (also known as the Agua Caliente or Murrieta Hot Springs fault zone) is an active Quaternary fault zone made up of continuous right-lateral fault strands].[1] It is a part of the San Andreas fault system and it is located in the western Salton Trough spanning three counties: Imperial, Riverside, and San Diego county, California. It is hypothesized to have originated during the early Pleistocene period.[2]

The San Felipe fault zone is within the San Andreas fault system.
