..., and continuing on to the northwest, terminating just south of the MVFZ. We present evidence here for Quaternary (Holocene) faulting in Fairway Meadow, located ∼10  km north of Truckee, California (Fig.  1 ). We initially analyzed 1:24,000‐scale USGS topographic maps and aerial photographs of the region...
