Santa Ynez Fault is a left-reverse fault in Santa Barbara County of California.[1] Its length is at least 130 km.,[2] running through Santa Ynez and north of nearby Santa Barbara. The Santa Ynez Mountains were uplifted within the last 5 million years,[3] mostly along this fault, which marks the north slope of the range.
