This is also close to the locations were the hydrothermal activity at this location has melted though the glacier.<\/p>\n<p>I was unable to record this earthquake because of GPS time rollover error in my GPS clocks that I use and it affects the software I use and time stamps on the recorded events. I need to do a software update on the GPS clocks before I can use them again. I am going to do that in late February or early March.
