I wouldn't trust that timeline to much, I don't think they really know for sure. It was a random worker at the front desk that had to ask the manager and call me back. I asked her if it was destination or super and she said she was sure it was Superchargers.

I am headed to Jackson to bring folks out of there for the eclipse. It is already crowded out here. I was thinking of driving the S60 out the week before and leave there the week after. It is a 2300 mile ICE trip I have done several times. According to trip planner, it is 2900 miles via I90. I would love to be able to take the I80 route, but I just don't see the three SCs being done by then.

P.s. I was in Jackson for the Tesla event in the beginning of June.

Definitely agree that it's not going to work for you in a 60 by August. People with 85+s just need Rock Springs to come online, so they have a decent shot. This of course assumes they have patience and a sense of adventure

Woo Hoo! Rawlins just showed up as having a permit on supercharge.info. I'll have my S 85. If it is not done, I'll have to go slow and add an hour of charging to give me some margin.
Here's hoping they get these done by Aug 22nd.
Then, ahem, it might have shown up from those guys reading these posts.
Permit to construction lag can take long. 60 days is cutting it close, but it is possible.

My family and I just drove from CA to Indy and we tried to make some our of stops at Superchargers in preparation for changing how we will road trip in the not too distant future. Here are some pictures of the Rock Springs location from this past Sunday.

It is real. It's happening! Thanks for the photos. I've been waiting for this route a long time.

Cool. Some government inspector probably has to come by and officially say it meets code and file some paperwork. Hopefully that won't take longer than the time it took to build it. Would be nice to see if something is going on at Evanston. But Rawlins is the lynch pin. We can live without the Evanston charger, but not without the Rawlins SC.

Is that for coming out of Jackson with a 60 S ? If not, What route do you do that you can't skip it?Not all of us

Provo Canyon in Utah up through I-80 heading east. Even out of Salt Lake I think it would be tight for anyone with any kind of inclement weather/wind.

sure wish the SC network would double, with the new sites being ones off of the major interstates - just like Ca has along 395 Mamoth lake, lone pine inyokern, etc.

Last time I stayed overnight at Rawlings Best Western, probably a good place to install eight SC stations.

That looks like the switch gear, not a transformer. Transformers have taken months around these parts since it falls to the power companies. Would be nice to get these open, no doubt. Sheridan took about a week to build and a few weeks for the Tesla team to come and certify it. They activate it.
