	San Andreas Fault - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The northern segment of the fault runs from Hollister, through the San Francisco Peninsula where it briefly goes offshore, then follows the coast of California fairly closely to Cape Mendocino, where there is an unstable triple junction where three tectonic plates come together to form a geologically complex and highly unstable zone.
		To the north lies the Cascadia subduction zone, where the Juan de Fuca plate and the last bit of its lower section sometimes called the Gorda plate, are being subducted under the margin of the North American plate.
		And west, along the continental shelf, lies the Mendocino fault zone, the strike-slip boundary between the main Juan de Fuca plate and the Pacific plate.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Estevan Cabrillo
		The latter sailed from Navidad in 1542, coasting slowly upwards owing to contrary winds.
		In the course of his voyage he discovered Santa Catalina, the Santa Barbara channel, Monterey, Cape Mendocino, and the Oregon coast as far as latitude 43°, thus being the discoverer of Oregon and of the entire California coast.
		Scurvy having broken out among the crew to a violent degree, Cabrillo could make but a short stay on the shores of Oregon and Northern California, and had to turn back.

	Overview of the History of Mount Shasta
		He was the first geologist to publish a proposal that Mt. Shasta or Mount Lassen erupted in 1786.
		The Lapérouse expedition was one of the greatest scientific charting expeditions of the 18th Century, comparable in scope and purpose with the voyages of Cook, and of Vancouver.
		Consider, too, that in 1816, thirty years later at the same place, on Cape Mendocino, the French fur trader Camille de Roquefeuil, saw the same sight as Laperouse, but recognized it as fires set by the native peoples.

		Bartolome Ferrelo took over charge of the expedition, and decided to make a new attempt to go further north.
		He rounded Cape Mendocino, and headed further north, reaching Rogue River (Oregon).
		After some more bad weather he made it safely back to Navidad.
