I was glad that I stumbled upon this video. I can honestly say that I know what it’s like. I live in Ridgecrest where in 2019 we were hit with a 6.4 followed by a 5.4 and finally a 7.1 the following day. I guess only those of us in the Mojave Desert can understand how a community comes together after a big earthquake. Instead of waiting for help, everyone just kind of starts helping each other. You think anyone in Los Angeles gives a rats a$$ about an earthquake in the desert? I am sure the people in Yucca Valley/Landers realized that in 1992 just like we did in Ridgecrest.

We lived in West Covina! Our parents had waterbeds, we had a butterfly ceramic chandler in the living room and a sliding wall that was between my sister's and my bedroom. It would rattle when shaken and was loud AF! The whole family knew when we even had a slight movement. I remember we kept having quakes and our parents kept promising that it was the last one. Boy, were they wrong. "Oh the So-Cal 90's"!

I was with the last group to use Camp Radford near Seven Oaks. Los Angeles County 4-H Summer Camp ended the day before the quake hit. It's a good thing that there was always a one day gap between camps. The lodge was heavily damaged. The massive stone fireplace collapsed, and with it, part of the second floor of the lodge went with it. Since the quake, several attempts have been made to repair the damage. None have been successful. The camp is owned by the city of Los Angeles Department of Recreation and Parks. Every time funds get appropriated to repair the damage, it gets mysteriously moved to other projects. The kitchen/mess hall sustained moderate damage and was repaired. The large cabin (cabin 1) was repaired, but the historic lodge only saw a minor clean up. The roof collapsed due to the chimney falling and the second floor has been exposed to the elements since the quake. At this point, it's doubtful it will ever happen. Very sad.

That was a proper Earthquake. I recall my friend and I (Then teenagers) getting into his uncles 1973 thunderbird to go survey his "property" after the quake. We sat in the back while they got absolutely hammered as we drove from Norwalk to Landers.... His Property? A cinderblock hut out in the middle of no where....If you see this Mike...Hit me up you lost soul.

We had a weekend home in landers was only 1000 sq ft but with 3 car detached garage. Honestly other than a bunch of broken dishes? (everything flew out of cabinets) Did not ness up the home or garage ....glad we were not there though we immediately drove out to check property. The area around the home was all thick sand/dg and the amazing thing was the old 3/4 ton ford pick up we kept out there had obviously "hopped" around as you could see everywhere it landed after bouncing! It had oversized offroad wheels and worn out shocks so it was pretty bouncy I was AMAZED how far the tire depressions were apart! The truck seriously bounced several feet! idk how the house stayed together so well but she did! Much of that home was the original cabin built in the 50s but it had a gabled roof 400 sq ft addition also

The chandelier was swinging back and forth very violently. The water in the pool was splashing out as if it the ocean. And as I walked down the hallway to my grandmothers room I had to hold on to the hallway wall so I didn’t fall. It was so scary.

Cars jumping up and down in the parking lot... devastating experience.

We lived in Palm Desert at the time. It was around 5 or 5:30 AM. I heard a rumble and jumped out of bed and yelled "earthquake"'. We had a plan for it: My wife and 14 year old daughter would run to the garage and get in the car, while I would go to my baby's room and get her, then go to the car, drive through the garage door if we couldn't open it. The first part worked fine, as my wife and daughter were in the car, but the shaking was so severe that I could not maintain my balance, so I just put myself over my baby's crib, covering her for possible falling debris. It lasted for about 40 seconds, and my house was in one piece, except for a few pictures that fell from the wall. I left the house and went to check my mom, in Bermuda Dunes, finding her calmly sitting at the garden with a neighbor. I brought her home in her nightgown. At around 8 AM we had a 6.5 aftershock. But we didn't even leave the house then. Anyone with traumas hasn't lived in SoCal long.

I was 5 in 1969. I could hear the concert, from the drive-in, from my house. There was a lot of traffic up and down Ramon Road. I remember a lot of people walking towards the drive-in. Early summer, my father took me up to Taqhuitz Canyon. The place was a mess. Trash, graffiti, syringes, empty beer cans, dirty blankets, &etc. In the late 70s I was a teen. Spring Break was a big deal still. We just wanted to party and cruise. In the late 80s I discharged from the military and went home. Spring Break died out in the early 90s. Most were going to Cabo, Lake Havasu, or Florida for the break. I used to hike the canyon when I first got out. It had been cleaned up. No permission was required from the tribe. Cops used to ticket cars that were parked near the trailhead. They would find any reason to discourage youths from going up there. At times they would wait for people to return to their cars. if they thought they were up there drinking or getting high. I used to ride my mountain bike to the trailhead and bike/walk the trail to the falls. It's a beautiful canyon. I can see why the local tribe would stay there in the summer months.

I happened to be driving when the first quake hit; a bunch of electrical transformers in the area simultaneously arced with the green glow, the radio went to static, and the tires and shocks on my truck all felt like they were moving in a different direction, all at exactly the same time. My first thought was that aliens were landing, or nuclear bomb had exploded, it was a pretty surreal sensation, it wasn't until I saw people coming out of their houses that I knew what was happening. I found the surface disruption caused by the quake to be very interesting, mainly because it was so plainly evident, I spent many days just going out in the desert searching for the geological evidence of the quake. The area around Galloway Dry Lake and the old bombing range and iron mines was really pretty neat, the "mole hill", it seemed like the whole area was kind of sparkling, I assumed it was from rocks being tumbled and fresh surfaces being exposed to the sun for the first time, I don't know, there was definitely a different kind of energy going on there immediately following the quake. It's kind of funny how "primitive" Yucca looks in these videos, I don't remember it feeling that way at the time. Thanks for posting this video!
