the 2012 event. A note to take into account, the 2012 temblor had a focal mechanism of thrust rather than strike-slip, like those observed along the fault. That earthquake was on the interface of the subducting Pacific Plate as it is underthrusted beneath the North American Plate. The Craig earthquake, on the other hand, was a near pure strike-slip event which was probably in response to

Because the earthquake was of almost pure strike-slip mechanism, only small waves were produced without damage. These waves were up to 14 cm high.
