New Superchargers for the West Slope

Light gray markers show superchargers “coming soon”

Red markers show existing superchargers for Teslas

Dark gray markers are existing chargers for Teslas and other EVs

This Supercharger in Silverthorne is a familiar and welcome stop but the network is expanding to make the Western Slope very Tesla friendly. We just had a row of tesla chargers installed in the Inn at Aspen parking lot  (these are limited to 72KW but still very welcome and will free up the  three local  Chademo DC options for the other electric cars).  The new charger at Poncha Springs makes that back road to Santa Fe a tantalizing possibility especially if that Alamosa one appears; and the “coming soon” options at Montrose , Telluride and Steamboat should make cruising between my favorite mountain towns a breeze. Now if we could just have a lifetime all West Slope ski pass as part of that Tesla purchase…..

 

One more supercharger station… and it’s in Aspen! Woohoo!

I was creeping along in morning traffic and what did I see pop up on my Tesla navigation? A new supercharger station… in Aspen …. so of course I had to go right over and check it out.

 

Yes that does say 242 miles per hour

 

This is Josh who works for the Inn at Aspen he’s doing the finishing touches on the install.

This is a lovely spot in the East parking lot of the Inn at Aspen

It’s located at the base of Buttermilk where they hold the Xgames… and where Home Team serves up some tasty BBQ sports bar fare…
