How many years did it take to change the position of the Carrizo Creek?
The creek flows out of the Temblor Range and takes a 420-foot dogleg to the right when it reaches the fault. That’s how much a series of quakes has moved the fault over the past 3,800 years. If that movement is averaged out, it comes to 1.3 inches a year or about the same rate that a person’s fingernails grow.
