"Earthquake Fault" is a crack not quite a mile long and up to 50 feet deep. It is not a fault, as features in neighboring rocks trace across it, and did not result from any known earthquake. It must be relatively recent (else the crack would have filled in) and may be related to magma flow to the Inyo Craters just to the north, which were erupting as late as 500 years ago.
