October 17, 2019 marked the 30th anniversary of the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake. If you were in the Bay Area on that day, you knew where you were and what you were doing at 5:04 p.m. when the 6.9 quake rocked the region.
But do you know the location of the actual epicenter? Many people don’t. It’s located deep in the Santa Cruz Mountains in an area known as The Forest of Nisene Marks in Aptos, Calif. To get there, you need to bike or hike a combined 1.4 miles. In this episode of our digital series ‘Hey Abbey’ our Digital Correspondent Abbey Fernández and Photographer Michael Horn journey to the epicenter to see what it all looks like, 30 years later.
