The Bailey area was hit by a 2.4 magnitude earthquake Saturday, Oct. 1, at 4:20 a.m. The epicenter of the quake was off County Road 43A, near Park County Road 1034.
According to the United States Geological Survey the quake was 5 kilometers (3.1 miles) in depth. There were no injuries or damage reported.
The Colorado Geological Survey said they received reports from 29 people that they felt the earthquake.
“There are no known young faults in the area, so it appears to be a random event,” Matt Morgan, Assistant Director and Senior Research Geologist at CGS said.
