We examine locations, magnitudes, and faulting types of post-2000 earthquakes in the trifurcation area of San Jacinto fault zone to clarify basic aspects of failure processes in the area. Most M3.5 events have strike-slip mechanisms, occur within 1km of the main faults (Clark, Buck Ridge, and Coyote Creek), and have hypocenter depths of 10-13km. In contrast, many smaller events have normal source mechanisms and hypocenters in intrafault areas deeper than 13km. Additional small events with hypocenter depth
