USGS

There were a lot of earthquakes in the Yellowstone National Park area in 2022, but that's not a reason to worry according to the USGS.

It's no reach to say that the ecosystem of Yellowstone National Park is one of the most dynamic and interesting in the world. It's a constantly changing environment that is not short on mystery. One of the biggest questions in the park over the past several years is why did Steamboat Geyser reawaken. A new study attempted to solve the mystery, but the conclusion is they still don't know.

It was reported as a magnitude of 3.6.

It wasn't a super shaker, but there was a significant earthquake in the Tetons today that many reported feeling. The USGS has confirmed this quake did happen.

It's not breaking news (no earthquake pun intended) that Yellowstone has a lot of earthquakes. But, even by the normal high standards, the USGS has confirmed there were a lot of earthquakes near the park in May alone.

The shaking has continued in Salt Lake City since the major earthquake on March 18. There are reports they've had over 600 quakes in the last two weeks alone.

Yellowstone experienced a moderate earthquake on Thursday that was the largest felt since 2017.
