Yes I felt it too here in West Sedona.
Being an original Californian We take bets on the magnitude, so since it was 7 miles north, I’m guessing an upper 5. to a low 6. but it’s hard to know since we’re dealing with a different geological formation here of Rock.
Thank You once again Sedona Eye for getting the word out instantly.

Crazy
Why would the Chamber of Commerce allow such a thing to happen in Sedona? Or is that part of their “destination marketing” program?
Cool!!
