Pretty interesting. I wonder what it might have rearranged. Like Tucki Bridge.

I haven't seen/heard any reports from Furnace or SPW yet.

I was camped out in Chloride Cliffs that night and happened to be awake.
It sounded a bit like a freight trail rumbling by a couple of blocks away. Then the camper swayed around once or twice. I was parked at the edge of a spectacular view of the valley. As such, the immediate thought was "how firmly did I pull the parking brake?".
Not big enough to have done any rearranging, In my opinion.

Haha! I've thought that more than once myself. Most of the time it's been jet though not earthquakes. I'm surprised that it made so much noise.
My main thought was some of the more delicate natural bridges in the Tucki area.
I did think that it was pretty interesting in one of the articles that I linked that there's pretty much only been 3 quakes this size in the park since 1945? Pretty wild seeing as how many weird faults there are all over the area.

I have to assume Tucki bridge has experienced many earthquakes over its life, but earthquakes centered basically right underneath it must be pretty rare, even on geologic timeframes. It's a pretty thin bridge. I wouldn't be surprised if at least some of those small boulders that are perched on its edges might have fallen. Beardilocks photo for reference

With respect to AlanMcR's comment about noise. I've had a similar experience. At home, Sunday morning some years ago, I was awakened. I heard what sounded like a HUGE truck coming up the hill a block away.. but Sunday early AM? And then I noticed the hanging doors swaying. Not a big quake, but I was surprised by the sound.
