Another frustrating update: drove through Walsenburg last week and looked at every motel, gas station, truckstop etc in town. No sign of any construction. Looks like the "Coming Soon" supercharger will not be, at least in 2020.
On the bright side, the town has a free Level 2 public charger (ChargePoint) that you can find on PlugShare.

Sure that's an option but lets be real, who the hell wants to sit in Walsenberg at a level 2 charger.

Nearby Lathrop State Park has a lovely campground with "50 amp" (14-50) RV pedestals for charging. Should anyone want to camp overnight and get a full charge while doing so.
^ Campground at Lathrop State Park, near Walsenburg, as seen from the Dakota Ridge Trail in late afternoon. Spanish Peaks are in the background.

When Tesla updated the map at https://www.tesla.com/findus at the beginning of 2021, they removed Walsenburg. While it's possible they might build one there eventually, I wouldn't count on one coming any time soon.
There has been discussion about one possibly coming to Pueblo even though it isn't currently on Tesla's Supercharger map.

As an alternative, there is a DCFC that was installed in Walsenburg by EV Trail that has CCS and CHAdeMO. It's a couple miles north of US-160 so not on the direct path between Alamosa and La Junta/Trinidad but convenient enough.
Anyone tried with a chademo adapter? Reviewers say station is picky with some cars (mini Cooper ev)
