Marco has a lead on permits for a new Supercharger at the Flying J in Scipio, Utah. The number of stalls is still unknown, so I'm assuming 12 for the sake of Supercharge.info.

When Ely, NV is also supercharged, Scipio will be a great jumping off point for the loneliest road in America, US-50.
Austin, NV next please.
Austin, NV next please.
I think Fallon, NV and Ely, NV are more important. On PlugShare both of those locations report issues with their CCS chargers.
Fallon, NV:
- It's 197.1 miles from Stateline, NV to Austin, NV. Fallon, NV would split the gap ~86 and ~111.
- Fallon, NV is not only on US-50 but also US-95, where it's between two V2s in Hawthorne, NV and Lovelock, NV.
- According to PlugShare Fallon, NV's only CCS charger isn't working.
It's still ~193 miles from Scipio to Ely - I wonder if Tesla will try to install something in between? There isn't any great option - either Delta, UT or the Border Inn Casino might be possible, but neither is ideal. I suspect they might leave that one as a gap for a while...
It will be Baker and Delta eventually, but as you say it might be years from now.
The Border Inn isn't much of anything. They'll find a more suitable location in Baker.
Pretty excited to be able to go from Cedar to Scipio, then home. Wont have to stop three times anymore when driving north from Vegas to SLC.
In the past it has been St. George slow charge, then Beaver, then Nephi slow charge. Now its going to be Cedar, then Scipio, then home.
Thanks Tesla for taking 30 minutes off my drives!

And, the question on my mind (and likely everyone else's):
Would this be the first supercharger colocated with a petting zoo?
To my surprise, no! Traver, California is right next to Bravo Farms, which has a small petting zoo adjacent to the Superchargers.
I've submitted requests for this site numerous times. I often tow my RV from SLC to Dixie several times a year and the 115 mile gap between Nephi and Beaver made it impossible to stay on I-15. I either had to detour to I-70 and charge in Richfield for a little bit, or attempt to use the EA station across the street from the zoo. That station was down for nearly 6 months last year while they were building an awning.
FYI, the petting zoo is usually only open in the summer, but they do have some unusual animals like Zonkeys.

I'm driving through on my way to the Eclipse this weekend. If I can convince the girlfriend that pulling off the freeway to look at a construction site for a Supercharger is a good use of time, then I'll stop by and take some pictures.

Did a quick look when driving through and didn't see any of the equipment on site.
I'm guessing after the snow is done falling all of these new ones in Utah will get started. Lets keep them coming TESLA.
