On June 6, 2026 at 04:24 UTC, a magnitude 3.1 earthquake struck 2 km WNW of Little America, Wyoming. At a depth of just -2.5 km, this was a very shallow event, close enough to the surface that modest magnitudes can produce significant local shaking. A small number of nearby observers (1) submitted felt reports to the USGS. The epicenter is at 41.552°, -109.891°. The solution has been reviewed by a USGS seismologist and is considered finalized. See the M3.1 event page for the full report, ShakeMap, and citizen-reported intensity data. | ||||||||
