Southeast of maximum displacement site. Here we see 3-4 meters of right-lateral slip have offset a ridge and created a 'shutter' ridge blocking flow in the dry creek channel. The white vertical surface is the fault scarp.

View towards south across Lavic Lake, with the surface rupture running from lower right to upper left. In the middle distance on the right is an ancient lava flow.
