A bright fireball was seen traveling in a SE direction (57 deg) throughout northern and central california, with reports of sonic booms and the ground shaking. A video of the fireball was obtained at the Yuba City's Sentinel camera by the late Larry R. Stange. Robert Ward triangulated the eye witness accounts putting the fall area 20 miles from the nearest road in a remote area. A 18.41 g single stone was picked up by a hiker, Ben Deutsch, near Red Canyon Lake (+38o 8.245'N, 119o 445.487' W), Tuolumne County, California, shortly after the fireball event [Image by Laurence Garvie / Center for Meteorite Studies at Arizona State University].
1. - San Juan Capistrano. H6. Fall. 1973 March15, 12 pm - 4 am PST.
Two specimens with a total mass of 56g were recovered. Location: 33o29'05''N, 117o39'45''W. The largest piece, 50.5g, penetrated the aluminum sheeting roof of a carport in a mobile-home park and was picked up on the carport floor several hours later. The second smaller fragment, 5.5g was discovered about one month after the fall in the gutter of the carport roof. Source: Meteoritical Bulletin 53, p. 138-139; R. C. Finkel, D. Lal, K. Marti (1973).

California Meteorite Finds (NOT found on dry lakes)
Source: Meteoritical Bulletin Database
Lake Los Angeles (b) - Ordinary chondrite (classified by UCLA: L6 S4 W1 Fa24.7±0.2); A single stone (82 mm by 50 mm by 37 mm) of 177.3 g was found on 2014 January 5th by Stephen Poterala along the southeastern edge of an alluvial fan forming a boundary between sand dunes and interdune mud flats [Met. Bull. 103].
Lake Los Angeles - Ordinary chondrite (classified by UCLA: H6 S2 W2 Fa18.9±0.4); A single stone fragment (92 mm by 70 mm by 57 mm) of 444.5g was found on 2013 November 30th by Stephen Poterala, while searching for meteorites along the margin of Lake Los Angeles(essentially eroded lacustrine sediments), which is located in very northeastern Los Angeles County. Found in a thin-veneer of sand on a break-in-slope where the local drainage had eroded-away the distal margin of the southern alluvial fan of Saddleback Butte.
Blackhawk Mountain - Ordinary chondrite (H4 S2 W0 Fa20.9±0.2); A solitary stone (20.16g) was found by Michael Mulgrew on 2012 Oct 20th 12:30pm PDT, while searching for meteorites on the surface of the Blackhawk Landslide (essentially an abandoned alluvial surface), which is located in Lucerne Valley, San Bernardino County.
Rosamond - Unequilibrated Ordinary Chondrite (LL3); found by Robert Verish on June 9, 2012, while searching for meteorites in an empty lot on the outskirts of the town of Rosamond (Kern County).
Johannesburg - Ordinary chondrite (H4 S2 W5 Fa18.6±0.1 [n=8]); Found by David Libuszowski on 2012 January 27th, while exploring in the Johannesburg area (Kern County) with his dad. The meteorite (a single 63 gram stone) was found partially exposed on a sandy slope.
San Bernardino Wash - Find 2010. Ordinary chondrite (L5); Bob Perkins of Highland, California found the first and second stones while metal-detecting for gold with Gary Crabtree near the "Rusty Gold Mine," in the Dale Mining District (Riverside County). Several fragments were subsequently found by Fred Mason, of San Diego, CA. On 18 April 2012 additional stones were recovered by Robert Verish, of San Diego, California. His first find (343.1g) was a nearly whole, slightly weathered individual stone. The subsequent stones (~650g) were all just a few meters away, forming a 20m wide “splatter zone” comprising ~24 badly weathered fragments, none of which could be physically-paired to the343g stone. Specimens: 22.1g (3 samples from the initial 10 pieces), 23g (from the 343g stone) and 41g (from the main mass); Because the 343g stone looks much less weathered, it was micro-probed by A.E. Rubin (classifier, UCLA) and characterized as being, "not only much less weathered, but also more shocked, slightly more equilibrated, and less chondrule-rich than the other San Bernardino Wash stones". Nomenclature Committee voted on October 2014 to officially name these additional stones as "San Bernardino Wash" (total mass 1250g, >34 pieces).

Ivanpah Dry Lake - Find: 2014 January 1st. H4. 1128g (Reference: MB#104). The site is in San Bernardino County, California A single mass of 1128g was found, an ordinary chondrite (H4 S2 W1 Fa18.4±0.1 [n=12]). This stone was found by J. Franske while he was hunting for meteorites on a dry lake bed. This rounded, 1128 g stone was found in two pieces about 40 feet apart. Both halves are covered in fresh, black fusion crust. It would appear the stone broke in half upon impact. A second stone was found in the vicinity that is likely paired; submitted by L. Atkins
