A number of faults make up the San Andreas Fault system in central and northern California. On this map, fault segments that creep aseismically at least 20% of the time are in yellow. Black star denotes the location of the San Andreas Fault Observatory at Depth project, just north of the transition from where the fault is locked to where it creeps.
