I'm gonna guess that this pronunciation is an anglicization of the word, like how the town of my birth is called "loss-ANN-juh-lus" in English, instead of it's correct Spanish pronunciation. Locals may say san-wuh-SIN-toe, but sahn-hah-SEEN-toe is the original pronunciation in Spanish.
@@DTHuey well I wouldn’t say it was turned into white pronunciation. It’s just pronounced correctly the way they said it, but you can say it anyway you want to see who cares. Like he said.
You're very welcome. It's a lot of fun putting together a video like this. All of our videos have the same detail. In case you haven't seen any other, see what our backyard looks like in SW Utah: ruclips.net/video/Da8OBq6dMow/видео.html
Thank you for the information. Being from the east coast I never realized I drove right over the San Andreas when I went to California for the first time. It’s all super pretty out there with these majestic mountains constantly in the backdrop but now I understand why it’s like that in the first place.
Another piece of the puzzle most investigators miss is that where the N. American landmass has broken off from European landmass it has traveled westward until stopped on the San Andreas Fault. The landmass' original position was in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. I would like to add that "sea floor spreading at a fingernail's growth rate" is only what we've observed SO FAR. Evidence is becoming apparent that there are HUGE sudden movements of hundreds of feet and perhaps even by miles. The original western edge of the landmass bordered the Sierra Mountains and all land to the west of it (including the Coastal Ranges) has been pushed up from the Pacific Ocean. There exists the potential for a catastrophic earthquake and tsunami event beyond anything seen in our history. Thanks for reading.
Thank you and you're welcome - thanks for commenting. Not scary. I lived in L.A. from 1965 to 1983 and we were always hearing about the SF Fault, the "Palmdale Bulge", and everything else. It was fascinating, hence my interest, but you know what? Nothing happened! Well, at least not yet.
It is really fascinating to see where the fault lines run. Excellent production of this video too! Great photos, maps and graphics. Really makes it easy to visualize where the fault runs!
Nice video I'm not to far from this fault and have known about it a long time. Its nice to see it from beginning to end. I actually worked on the seismic upgrade of SB Valley colleges in the early 2000's. One correction though. @ 22:09 you point out a column and say it was added. Sorry, that was part of the original design. It may have had a steel sheath put around it as part of a retrofit but it is original. The concrete beams supported by 2 columns on either side of the single column were added and not part of the original design. All the 2 column supported beams shown were added and I believe they are there so that the single column doesn't punch through the roadway by sudden uplift during an earthquake. But don't quote me on that.
Thank you and thanks for commenting! Excellent, someone that might know some of the history! I remember SB Valley College in two phases, before and after the seismic modifications. So that was the early 2000's? I wasn't sure about that. And thanks for pointing out the freeway columns. I remember that seismic upgrade on both the I-10/215 and I-10/15 intersections. It would be great to hear from someone on what was actually done. I thought the double columns you mention were the original ones and the single ones were added later. The other modifications done that I am aware of is the cables that were added to hold the bridge deck down onto the pillars so that they won't shake off. In fact, many bridges all along I-15 thru Cajon Pass were also modified this way.
@@BackRoadsWest1 If you notice the double column and beam actually sit below the road way and are not touching or connected. I drive the interchange a lot and can see they aren't connected. SBVC might have been in the mid to late 2000's not the early 2000's as I mentioned.
Yeah you'd have to walk large sections of this fault and I have. The problem is that it's often too hot to go walking and, if you don't like walking in the rain, then that makes it hard and the summer temperatures should not be underestimated by anyone as they will kill you but they will first delude you into thinking you can just toughen up and stick it out. Do not make that mistake as I have.
I apologize for breaking the rules. It’s San Ha-cinto. Stop listening to New Yorkers. I studied earthquake faults intensely from my Cub Scout days. My dad and I mapped the Rose Canyon Fault in the early 60s. Professors at both San Diego State and UCSD called us crazy. There are stress fracture faults all over SoCal. Some just miles long and others several hundred. I like your videos very much and encourage you continue this work.
Glad you enjoyed the tour! I never heard of the Rose Canyon Fault before, so I looked it up, and behold it's related to the Inglewood and definitely "San Andreas-like". And here, I've always told people that San Diego is pretty "earthquake safe". Maybe not. I've always wondered: how does one map a fault? I'm sure it has to do with looking for lots of ground evidence. You know, that would be a great video to produce someday. Thanks for commenting.
I'll now pronounce it the way you do as I think local pronunciation takes priority. Anyway, thanks for this because while I know about this fault, I am less familiar with features along it. You should do one of the San Andreas Faults other sister, the Hayward Fault that you spoke of. Most of it is easily accessible.
As stated in the video, I've lived within view of the SJ Mtns and been around people saying it the way I said it. People can call it whatever they want. This is the way I was brought up saying it when in Palm Springs. Yes, I'm familiar with the Hayward Fault but don't live close by. I need also update our tour of the fault in Marin County (Point Reyes). We're also working on one of the SAF in Coachella Valley.
@@2DangerousDan Sounds like the Hemet dialect ;-) Yea, we lived in San Bernardino area and Victor Valley for decades and heard it both ways, but mostly the way I pronounced it, including on the historic film of how the Palm Springs aerial tramway was built. Tomato, tamoto...
I have lived within 12 miles of San Jacinto since 1968 and have never heard this pronunciation, it's always one of the two alternates you mentioned! No discussion just fact! thank you for doing this video though.
We both have also lived in that area since the early 1960s and have always heard it the way I pronounced it. Like I say in the video, tomato, tamoto, say what you want. Besides, if what you say is true, then we should be saying San Ha-keen Valley for the big valley in Central California, right?
@@BackRoadsWest1 I just called my son-in-law Israel Ibarra (a Mexican) and asked him and he said it San Ha Seen toe is correct in Spanish the way he learned it. His mom doesn't even speak english at all.
@@2DangerousDan understood, Israel speaks Spanish, I speak English. Did you watch what's discussed at 3:10 in the video? Again, the video is about geology, not language. Who knows, to somebody, I might be mispronouncing Los Angeles, but that's not the point of the video.
@@BackRoadsWest1 I agree, your lane and expertise is obviously geology and not Spanish, mine is neither one! If you are mispronouncing it, it's not you fault. ;^) I also realize that as in English, not all that speak Spanish will pronounce everything the same either. It is likely I mispronounce many words myself. I really enjoyed this video and appreciate all the effort you put into it's production as well as your explanation of the geology! I have known about the San Jacinto fault for a long time but have never seen the detail you shared. I live just south of Hemet now and we have joked for years about the coast falling into the ocean and that we may have beach property here someday, LOL! Truth be told I think we are on the ocean side of that prospective new beach and would not survive it's forming if it happened in our lifetime either way.
@@2DangerousDan Glad you enjoyed the tour and know more about the fault now. Growing up in the '70s, in the L.A. area, we all worried about the Palmdale Bulge on the San Andreas and it was the sign of the impending "big one". But it never happened. In the High Desert, everyone knew that one day, we all would own beachfront property - but that someday would be in a few million years. So I'm right there with you!
I used to work on the San Jacinto Ranger District of the San Bernardino National Forest. As I recall there was a spot near Thomas Mountain and Hog Lake that would slide any time there was an earthquake anywhere near the fault. I don't remember but possibly on Rouse Hill Road or Forest Road 6S18.
This was terrific. Im frequently driving that portion of the 371 (south/west) and always wondered why it gets so knarly approaching into anza. This video made 30 years of hiking that area make total sense. U da man!!
LOL! - 30 years of hiking. Well, some of those picture of Anza-Borrego we took some 10-20 years ago. I'm glad we put them to use! Funny, I've never driven that stretch of 371, hence the reason we used Google Street view, but the road thru the fault really sticks out on the aerial imagery. Thanks for commenting!
@BackRoadsWest1 Since you said you might be here in the coachella valley..... Here are some ideas ......you may have already addressed them in the past .please forgive me if that's the case. 1) Painted Canyon is beautiful but make sure you have a car that can handle the dirt road getting there. However.....box canyon road (which accesses that area from the 10) is incredible. Folded rock everywhere. 2) Whitewater road accesses the White water river.....it goes right over the SA fault line. Bring a bathing suit. 3) Indio hills badlands.....imho the most beautiful hike in the valley.....it's right on top of the SA fault. It's located in all those crinkled up mountains. 4) bonus fact. The rocks on the north American plate ( like at whitewater)are all white/ black/ maybe grey). The mountains and rock on the pacific plate side ( like across the valley at Santa rosa mnt) are all colors of the rainbow. Love the channel!! Thank you🙏
@@Ali-yh9qi awesome! Thanks for the info. Painted Cyn is on our list (yes we have a 4WD). Been to Whitewater and I can see on Google Earth immediately where the fault is located. Never heard of Indio Hills Badlands, but I see it on the map - I've stayed at resort a few blocks from there. And, your #4, did you know those colored rocks will match up with rocks on the other side of the fault some 300 miles away? That's how far the two plates have been sliding past each other. For instance, there are rocks near Cajon Pass that can be matched up to rocks near Salinas (near Monterey). Pretty amazing!
As mentioned at 3:10 in the video, we've lived there for 50 years and we've heard it pronounced both ways - mostly the way I'm saying it. How do you pronounce that big valley in central California, San Ha-keen Valley?
Did you not watch the video and listen to the section on Was-sin-toe's pronunciation and read the comments? The video is about geology and the fault, not how words are pronounced!
@@Moozac so, do you call that big valley in California that Fresno sits in San Ha-keen Valley? Does that bug you? In a place like California where there are so many people from all over the world, more than most States, why would that bug you? Or, do you just not get it?
San Jacinto is spanish word for Saint Hyacinth, therefore the only correct way to pronounce it is the way it’s pronounced in Spanish: Ha-seen-toh. Everything else wrong.
Thanks for your knowledge on the word Hyacinth. Naturally, I speak English and use the (American) English pronunciation I've heard all my life in So Cal. This video is about the fault, not how to pronounce words. It's amazing to me that so many comments identify people are more concerned with pronunciation rather than the significance of the fault itself. Perhaps I'll create a video on the history, meaning and pronunciation of the title San Jacinto. As that isn't my area of expertise, care to be my consultant?
I live in San Jacinto you’re actually saying it correctly, but you’re right tomatoes tomatoes
I'm gonna guess that this pronunciation is an anglicization of the word, like how the town of my birth is called "loss-ANN-juh-lus" in English, instead of it's correct Spanish pronunciation. Locals may say san-wuh-SIN-toe, but sahn-hah-SEEN-toe is the original pronunciation in Spanish.
@@DTHuey well I wouldn’t say it was turned into white pronunciation. It’s just pronounced correctly the way they said it, but you can say it anyway you want to see who cares. Like he said.
I love it! Thanks for commenting.
Reminds me of Mt Pinos.... Locals dont know its a Spanish word and pronounce it wrong...
