So I actually felt the earth quake this morning at 7:10 AM it woke me up! Crazy stuff! I looked into why we get earth quakes here in Utah. What I have found is that even though we don't have a boundary near us they come from the activity from the Pacific plate along the plate margin on the west coast of the United States. This movement is what causes fault breaks on the Wasatch front.
