Nope. Never been sure what the contractor rules or preferred spectator behaviors are, so I generally stay out of the way when I snoop.The Blackstone guys are getting really good at doing this! You didn't happen to ask if they knew where they were working next, did you?

Went by Saturday and this was progress now. Looks like they need to pull wire and drop chargers and there good, then pud portion. Moving along! I will or should be back that way on the 4th of December and will snap a few more pictures then.

December 12 update:
All the pavement has been finished by the chargers. I would think some lane stripping will need to happen. The green transformer is in as already photographed. There is till one concrete pedestal that has nothing on it...maybe two more cabinets? There are two white cabinets in already (unless those are the EA ones?)
The giant wooden spools with wire are still there...

Looking like it is very close to being done

My stepdaughter sent this to me yesterday. Seems very close to completion! 
Good thing I charged up in Sandy before heading out through the gorge today. The Superchargers look open but they don't work, yet.
I cruised through here today (forgot to take a pic!). Stations are still waiting for power, just getting a nice light powerwash from all the rain.
Unfortunately it also looks like the parking line paint wasn't fully cured before our cold snap, because it's already chipping/cracking and a lot of it is gone.

So far I haven’t seen a photo of the transformer (big & green). Anyone passing by have the time to stop and take a photo of it, or at least it’s empty padsite?
Who knows, maybe you’ll be the first to charge here!

Yep, pretty sure that's what we were looking at. It looked "complete" when I stopped by as well.
If we skip back to MP3Mike's post from august, the plans show it over on the green space near the Electrify America charging station.
All that said, the plan also states that it'll be updated by the utility, and I didn't look to see if there was evidence of upgrading on the site (not sure I'd know what to look for lol). Aside from waiting for permission to activate, perhaps that's a hold-up.
Thanks agegamon, gone skiing and doakills for all of that. I see in Doakills Dec. 4th photo that the Tesla cabinates are on pads next to the already on site transformer that needs up-grading. Since we can’t see that, I think looking for a meter where the plans indicate (in ‘switchgear’ between the above 2), if it’s visible, is what to look for now. See attached.

I haven't had all that much time to go out that way. Just got back from a trip to phoenix, drove the Tesla down. Only supercharger fun I had was snooping on the Kingman site and was 1 week short on getting to use it! Wasn't live when I was there.
Plugged in and working 1/23/22. Don’t see where I can insert a pic, only reference an http to one.
Yes! Troutdale Supercharger is open and fully operational!
