I was just through Park City over the last week a couple times. I used the new Tesla station with 20 stalls, they had longer cables too. Worked out nicely. These look like they will be convenient for people hitting the resort.

So the longer cables prevented you from using two spaces?

I found this photo that I think answers your question. Also gives you a good idea of the layout of the station.

Some access in and around the San Raphael Swell or closer to Delta/ Little Sahara would be awesome

This is an absolute no brainer location. I still say they should cut a deal with Vail Resorts and put them at all the major ski resorts. It supports the adventure marketing, will be noticed by current owners and prospective owners, etc.

Rivian should work out a deal to put them in the parking lots of the Cottonwood resorts, located close to the base lifts and free with four skiers in the vehicle. I'd be willing to pick up folks waiting for the ski bus at the canyon base P&R lot to get preferred parking and free charging . . .

Honestly, for ski resorts, I think 20 slow chargers would be more beneficial than 10 fast chargers. It's a "destination", so most folks are there for the entire day or weekend and away from their cars.

Example: Breck's new garage at the gondola base has a bunch of Chargepoint 240V chargers, which is plenty since our car is just sitting from 7am-3pm on ski days.

This is great! Park city has gotten so many high speed chargers recently. There's an EA, Supercharger which both came this summer and now the RAN.
Nice PPF on your R1S. I had the glossy PPF done a couple weeks ago. For this climate it is a must.

This location is in a shopping center parking lot that doesn't allow day skier parking. I like your idea about the slow chargers. The only ones that I know of at Park City Mountain Resort are in a paid parking garage.

Love that idea. It would help with congestion in the canyon.
