Santa Clarita Region

To view unlabeled image click here, or go to http://eol.jsc.nasa.gov .
The Santa Clarita region is tectonically active, with numerous faults crossing the area. Movements along these faults has produced uplift, forming steep-sloped mountains, with occasional earthquakes to remind people of southern California's restless crust. With a rugged beauty and close proximity to Los Angeles, Santa Clarita has mushroomed in population since the mid 1990's, with subdivisions expanding in all directions.

The large files may take from a few seconds to a minute or so to download, depending on your computer and your Internet connection.
