A 4.2 magnitude earthquake was registered about 2 miles outside of Capulin Peak on Monday morning, July 12, 2021. It was followed by a M3.7 tremor half an hour later…
The map below shows the epicenter of the m4.2 earthquake that hit 3 km E of Capulin, New Mexico at 9:33 AM local time (15:33 UTC) on July 12, 2021.
Tremors were felt and reported across northern New Mexico by more than 300 people on the USGS homepage.
The second earthquake hit only 30 minutes later (10:06 AM local time or 16:06 UTC) at approximately the same location.
28 felt reports were filled on the USGS website.
Neither injuries nor damage have been reported…
The earthquakes occurred on the Gallina’s fault line that runs along the Southeastern edge of the Colorado Plateau.
Why is this interesting?
Capulin Volcano is part of the 8,000 square mile Raton-Clayton Volcanic Field which contains at least 100 recognizable volcanoes and showcases the volcanic geology of northeastern New Mexico.
The 8,182-foot-high cinder cone volcano erupted 56,000 ± 8000 years ago… The crater rim is about a mile in circumference and the crater about 400 feet deep.
As shown on the map above, two other quakes (M2.7 and M3.0) hit 3-4 km NNE of Capulin, New Mexico on the same day…
Some other tremors were also reported end of April 2021 in the same area… If we take all these larger earthquakes (>M2.5) into account – and the hundreds of tiny quakes – it seems evident that the area is heating up… Is the volcanic activity in the northern part of New Mexico shifting from extinct to dormant? Time will tell… But always be prepared!

Attention all communist buttmonkeys:
Take your mRNA vax immediately. Save the planet from tyranny. Lol.
If the quakes were bigger, then I would be more concerned. This seems like normal activity.
Capulin is an area next to Gallina the earthquake occurred along the the Gallina’s fault line. Also the earthquake occurred along the Southeastern edge of the Colorado Plateau. All news and info keep referring to this earthquake as located by Capulin Volcano. If you are going to report the news keeps your facts straight and do your research.
Capulin Peak and Capulin Volcano are two very different locations in different parts of the state. 5 of your 6 maps are showing Capulin Peak, not Capulin Volcano. There is no relation between the two other than name. Capulin Volcano is about 30 miles east southeast from Raton, NM. Your USGS map is the only one showing the location correctly.
Yep! Sorry for that. I mixed up things here. It is of courxe Peak and not volcano. Thank you for our help!
