Great Basin National Park: Closest EV Charger?

[Wyeme]

Planning a trip from Las Vegas to Lehman Campground at Great Basin NP on a TMY LR. Where is the closest charger to GBNP? What’s the recommended route? I am thinking Fwy 93 but I haven’t verified/plotted this on tesla navigation yet. Appreciate any thoughts.

I suggest using plugshare.com or their app for charger locations. Abetterrouteplanner.com is great for route planning. And if the campground has RV hookups, you can use your mobile connector with a Tesla 14-50 adapter or the evseadapters.com TT-30 adapter.

Looks like there’s one in Baker, NV and Ely, NV.

I did that trip on my M3LR in 2020. We had to car camp at the RV park cross the street from the national park entrance. they have a 14-50 Nema option, so we were able to get a full charge from there. Other than that, Baker will be the closest one I believe

Having a 14-50 adapter and your mobile charger is a good thing to have. When I was traveling East of Lassen NP, many RV sites offer 14-50 charging for EV's to charge for 10-20 bucks in case you are stuck.

Ely is still quite a ways. There’s at least a couple of places to charge at Baker - NEMA 14-50, J-1772, and wall.

It’s unnerving to see such a notification (see picture) though i still managed to do the scenic drive and camped for the night with 24%. I hope to wake up with a 10-15% charge.
