When the ground shifts like that and it is on a property line, whose property is it?

Yes, the classic “59 and 60 Chevy” earthquake photograph.

The reporter I heard on Fox radio also said No Danger of Tsunami. Would there ever be such a danger for an inland earthquake? At first that just sounded stupid, but then the epicenter is closer to the coast than it is to Fairbanks as reported on the radio.

Alaska is seismically very active.Alaska accounts for approximately 11% of the world's earthquakes and 52% of all earthquakes in the U.S. Alaska has more seismicity than any other region in North America and is by far the most seismically active state in the U.S.

I remember the one back in the 60’s. Pretty horrendous. I think of that every time I hear of an earthquake back there. I’ve been to Anchorage twice. Interesting city. All of my kids have lived there at one time or another. Ever hear of Harold’s Maytag?

One of the biggest things to worry about is tsunami. Many of these big quakes are underwater. The quakes cause a bottom displacement and then a tsunami occurs

We've been through many good shakers, huge burns, 30x40 miles across; you should hear the jets at treetop level & freight trains too when winds pick up. During Mentasta, we heard the trains coming down the valley for 3-4 days, had 6.0 aftershocks for 3 weeks. Had a huge flood here in Eagle this May, washed 1/3 the town & old village away, ice came in 30 feet high; water was 18 feet above any previous high water mark in memory. I live on high ground, needless to say.
When that initial quake in 03 was over, I looked at the wife and said: I really really really luv you, kinda funny but surreal.
We've been in Ak since early 90's, they can't run me outta this place; gonna die here someday.

A 5.7 located 35 miles deep will be noticed by seismologists and maybe a can of beans on a store shelf, but I doubt it. If you live in the coastal plains on liquefaction prone sediment, a 2.3 can take your breath away.
