I try to skip the Beaver charger if I can. Typically you can go from Richfield to St George without range anxiety.

That stretch is easy and gorgeous. I have done Grand Junction to Richfield in my X 100D.
If you get hungry, the restaurant across the street is actually pretty good.

Green river can be fast. Choose the charger closest to curb and flags, I have found it to be the fastest.
I watched Riding in Cars with Comedians on Netflix at St George Supercharger over the weekend.

The chargers worked great but if you are concerned about people not wearing masks in restaurants or the gas station, stay in your car. There is no mask mandate in this county and it is a travel destination, so people stop here from all over. No employees, cooks, waiters, etc. wear them in the restaurants, no gas station staff and maybe 10% of those going in did.
Had the opportunity to wait for 45 minutes at this charger on 12/26/2020 before I was able to plug in. By the time I got to 40% in my LR I gave up and left to St. George. The line was at 12 people by then.
This, again, desperately needs to be upgraded with more stalls and V3 Superchargers.

“beaver”
The Utah Tesla Club has had posts weekly about long lines at the Beaver Supercharger. We just got confirmation from the land owner there are 24 stalls being installed.
Not sure if this is going to replace the current 8, or be additional. But, a very much needed expansion.
We actually have people recommend against going on a Tesla road trip because of this stop.

This is one I might be able to beat you to! You may have been first at Draper and at K1 Speedway, but I'm gunna try and beat you to this one! Keyword try, because I'm sure you'll find a way to beat me!
Man, that will really be nice to see Beaver get a supercharger upgrade.
I've been pleased and surprised with how Tesla has been on the ball about improving charging here in southern Utah. They added some much needed temporary superchargers here in St. George, and also added a few temporary stations in Cedar City, too. They are a bit slow, but they sure beat waiting for hours to charge at Beaver or St. George when they are busy.
Now if they can just catch the people responsible for repeatedly vandalizing the St. George supercharger. My offer (previously posted in the St. George supercharger thread) still stands. If you find yourself in St. George and unable to charge due to out of order superchargers, send me a PM here on the forums, and I'll hook you up to my Wall Connector. It's setup for the max charging rate possible for a Wall Connector, but even that is still pretty slow. It does, however, beat being stuck with no charging options. Electricity in my area is among the cheapest in the U.S., so I won't take any money for using it.

According to the FB post a shirt while ago, today is the day construction was supposed to start on the big expansion! Hopefully they move at Draper pace once they start.
