The epicenter was about 8 miles north of Anchorage, at a depth of some 25 miles. There were zero casualties. Alaska is the most seismically active region of the United States. In 1964, southern Alaska experienced the most powerful earthquake known to hit North America – a 9.2 magnitude quake, with an epicenter about 75 miles east of Anchorage.
