On April 10, 2025 at 22:03 UTC, a magnitude 3.1 shallow crustal earthquake struck 25 km SSE of Antelope Valley-Crestview, Wyoming, at a depth of 0.0 km and coordinates 44.0068°, -105.3668°.

Physical scale: An earthquake of magnitude 3.1 releases seismic energy equivalent to roughly 674 kg of TNT. Empirical fault-scaling laws (Wells & Coppersmith, 1994) estimate the subsurface rupture length at approximately 83 m — a useful intuition for the size of the slip patch on the fault.
