Satellite Technologies Detect Uplift in the Yellowstone Caldera

I did find this website the other day, it is a very good one. It is very interesting to read.

Do you know of a mountain range or more like Rock formations at a state park there in lower/mid CA area? I visited it once and the formations were traveling (or more like moving) distances across the ladnscape that were remarkable, what started out way up North had over centuries [due to the ground shifting], had literally relocated to the area they now sit at! It was really an awesome sight to visit there, but I can not recall the exact name of the park!

Would that might be our San Andreas Fault Line?

Next quake on that fault line may be my undoing. Long overdue for a big one.

Possibly the fault line was the route this formation traveled, but I am thinking of a specific name for the rocks. I will do an on-line search and get back to you. If you've never visited this park it is well worth your effort to go spend an afternoon there it really is neat, and I just bet you'll like it! Many young folks go there and scale/climb the craggy rock faces. I also saw a bird there that I have never identified yet! And I saw bats in some of the passage ways betweed the rocks. Anyway I will let ya' know it's name.

Just for the record I hope in our lifetime you will never have to experience the "big one'! I liked the samll tremors I experienced while residing in Cali. but I have no desire to see or hear of the destruction a really big quake would create! Much less if it effects someone I am aquaited with!

Provided without comment about Yellowstone:

Exodus 2006 - Yellowstone - this place appeared dead, waited for 2010.

Golly dog CanMan I can't read Hebrew, that's just way out of my league:D

But thanks for the reference just the same, and like you said "provided without comment" I can't comment either seeing as I can't exactly sipher the lingo & all!
