But. according to ur. nvium treology at the auniversity of Utah, the Wasatch Fault has now ap parently settled down and gives no more signs of causing trouble. There was a time when the Fault raised havoc on a herculean scale. Maybe It was 200 years ago. Maybe it was 1,000. Schneider's not sure. But some time, not long ago the way geologists banter time around, the Fault slipped drastic ally. Scarps rough edges of rock still visible and not carried away by erosion show that there was a vertical displacement on that slip r.f 15 to 50 feet, all within a few hours. , That was the last knwon move ment along the Fault. As a result of it and other earlier slippages, the Wasatch range was formed.

The geologist said another slip like the last one, with movements of 15 to 50 feet vertically, would be extremely dangerous.
