Magnitude 3.9 Earthquake Struck Communities in Oregon

June 7, 2021

People in communities near Mt. Hood, Ore., reported feeling a moderate earthquake Saturday night, the Oregoniann/Oregonlive.com reported.

The magnitude 3.9 earthquake hit less than four miles northeast of Government Camp, just after 8:50 p.m.

Andy Diaz was working at the Charlie’s Mountain View restaurant when he felt the shaking.

Another co-worker, Valerie Tergerson, was taking beer orders for a table of six when she heard the wood in the building creak.

“Then I kind of thought, maybe this was all in my head?” Tergerson said about half an hour after the quake.

Soon after, a table with regular customers told Tergerson they also felt a shake, and another co-worker called Diaz on the phone to say the same.

“He confirmed that I’m not crazy,” Diaz said of his friend.
