<span>The Wasatch Fault sits in Utah and slips in a mainly vertical direction. It has mountains that rise relative to the floor of the valley. It is referred to as a normal fault. The Wasatch Mountains were slowly lifted up and tilted slightly east due to the fault moving. On average throughout history it has lifted roughly 1 millimeter per year thought there are signs that a rapid slip has occurred during the past few thousand years.</span>
