We all know they just grab rocks from out back and tint them different colors. Shine up a few of them. Put fake imprints of fossil skeletons in some of 'em. The smaller, the more they cost - I haven't figured that one out.

It looks like Quartzsite will be getting shaded charging. There are two concrete pedestal bases poured.

Object in the southwest corner of the lot is a drain box.

Trying to get the date of the picture/article, I got a response from the AuthorThese guys import rocks from all over the world.
Here's an old article, but nothing much has changed over the years.
A View of The Quartzsite Gem Shows - International Gem Society
"The earliest version of this article dates back to 2001. I made some edits and added the links to the Quartzsite gem shows in 2016.

I figure with the time I'll save charging at a decent rate, I can stop at some other establishment for a bite and restroom break and come out ahead all the way around.

The door into Carl’s has been locked for a couple of months. Maybe the new drainage in the south west corner has another use?

Definitely need restrooms at Quartzsite; Carl’s Jr. will not suffice. Maybe an unmanned restroom building, keyed to any Tesla card key?

Those are the same size as the baker solar canopy bases. So it’s anybody’s guess.

Well, sad to say, but no shade. I didn’t stop, just grabbed a few quick Shots as I drove by.

From talking to one of the workers last weekend, they're planning on laying down gravel initially, probably to ensure the site is up for next weekend's July 4 traffic.
Thanks for the pictures @SSonnentag
Do those two brown cases by the cabinets and switchgear appear to be transformers already installed?

Ideally something that takes the least amount of maintenance. If Tesla could make something like this: Prefabricated Restrooms, Buildings & Vault Toilets - Green Flush Toilets
Slap solar and a small back up battery on it and all you need is monthly water refilled and sewage pumped. Slap a keypad lock on the door that has a code that shows up on your screen like Kettleman or Vegas. I am sure Tesla can figure out something better.

So it looks like they will keep the same name/site (it's not technically a new site) and going by "14 of 43 available" - they temporarily have both old and new stalls active at the moment (not fully active, but both listed and perhaps the new ones are registering as "in use" initially)?
I guess eventually the old ones will be closed and they'll adjust the number back down.
At the moment there are presumably:
There is only a max of 28 new ones since there are only 7 cabinets.
That adds up to 42 stalls - where is the 43rd?

At the moment there are presumably:
- 6x 72 kW urban superchargers (Carls Jr - on pallet)
- 8x 150 kW superchargers (Carls Jr)
- 28x 250 kW superchargers (new site)
