The epicenter is two miles beneath, the summit of Santiago Peak, the largest peak in the Santa Ana Mountain range east of Orange County.

The Orange County sheriff’s office reported no initial reports of damage. The quake’s center is near the Riverside-Orange County line in an unoccupied wilderness area of the Cleveland National Forest.

Santiago Peak is a major radio relay site for public services, but there are no reports of damage there.
