What's shaking Alaska?! Minto Flats in Interior Alaska marks the 30th anniversary of their last significant earthquake. The area typically has a strong earthquake about every 30 years, and is also home to precursory events that may help us learn more about earthquake triggers https://bit.ly/4h2w6Hn
