Lawrence, a couple of points: other than letting you feel good venting on the evdl to fellow EV'rs (and providing some interesting detail on your EV route/experiences), we can't do much about correcting the too far away gaps between public L3 EVSE. I have vented in the past but always let the powers that be also know.
I suggest (if you haven't already) shoot these lack of infrastructure concerns to those that can act on them. VW is still touting how great are their efforts to install EVSE https://www.electrifyamerica.com/our-plan Over a ten year period ending in 2027, Electrify America will invest $2 billion in Zero ... charging network -- to drive EV adoption by reducing charging anxiety ... ... https://www.google.com/search?q=volkswagen+charging VW wouldn't be making such an effort if it were for the efforts of many (including sierra club) to sue/hold vw responsible for their dieselgate https://www.sierraclub.org/press-releases/2017/11/all-50-states-apply-for-vw-settlement-funds-ahead-schedule So, I would let both sierra club and their buddies at plug in america know of the charging discrepancies. 2nd point: I think you and I are using plugshare differently, giving different results. You mentioned Mt. Shasta, but sometimes Lake Shasta is transposed in the word use. If I understand correctly, you are EV touring/trekking north on I-5 from Sacramento aiming for just south of Medford, OR. I came up with L3 CHAdeMO points to get you there and back (map) https://goo.gl/maps/wLYRweUf9Es https://www.plugshare.com/location/81743 2256 Solano St, Corning, CA 96021 https://www.plugshare.com/location/73333 833 E Cypress Ave, Redding, CA 96002 https://www.plugshare.com/location/81745 4314 Pioneer Way, Dunsmuir, CA 96025 https://www.plugshare.com/location/75901 1868 Fort Jones Rd, Yreka, CA 96097 https://www.plugshare.com/location/6542 2371 Ashland St, Ashland, OR 97520 The way I did this was to open plugshare.com , set the filters to only look for j1772, L3-CHAdeMO, & L3-ccs. The move the plugshare map to show what L3 were along I-5 to reach your destination.
