Yep. It's 8. Was able to count them on the way to Westport last weekend. Cheers, M.

They seem to keep pushing the date of completion back. If electrical hookups done and concrete poured, what's the delay I wonder? Any current pics? We just got back from a 101 trip and had to go by Centralia to get home to Port Townsend. Really looking forward to this one being on line (and then Port Angeles!)

Nope, it's still going to be a while before it's open. My guess is maybe 2 weeks.
They were pouring cement today. (Thursday 11/17/2016). It is almost all poured, except for one more lane. I'm not sure how long it has to sit and cure, but probably not for very long. On all of the other Superchargers that I have seen, the transformer bays are all enclosed behind a wood fence. That still isn't up yet.

Well, if you were hoping to hit the Supercharger on your way out to the coast this Thanksgiving weekend, it's not open yet. But it's real close.
There's a driveway now and most of the lot is paved. Looks like just the back corner to go. As it stands right now, you could drive right up to the chargers, if you didn't mind driving through some tape.

It will show up in your nav when it goes live. Or on the "Find Us" tab at Tesla.com.

So, no, it's not live yet.
PS - Looking at Tesla's new 2017 project Supercharger map, it appears they are planning for Forks, WA to get a supercharger over Port Angeles, WA. With the free L3 (Chademo) at Wilder in Port Angeles, and plenty of chargers in Bremerton already, on top of destination charging in Neah Bay, that really does open up the entire Olympic Peninsula for safe travel. Great job, Tesla!
Look again -- there is a dot for either Port Angeles or Sequim.
BTW, that CHAdeMO in Port Angeles was reported to no longer be available to Teslas.

FYI - I was just told they can no longer allow Tesla's to charge here. Nissan is apparently telling them that there has been problems with Tesla's charging and bending the pins on their CHAdeMO connector.
I find this odd since I just used a free L3 last weekend in Vancouver, WA at the Nissan dealer and had a nice chat with the staff, including the manager. No one said a word about this being an issue.
