The US Geological Survey reported the tremor near Manson, Idaho, eight miles southeast of Soda Springs. The 4.3 magnitude quake occurred approximately 10 kilometers below the earth’s surface.

The earthquake was felt by residents as far north as Afton, Wyoming, down to Ogden. Residents through the area reported weak to light shaking.

The Caribou County Sheriff’s office said there were no reports of any damage or injuries.
