Charging around Borrego Springs
EV density in Borrego Springs itself is low. The calls come from visitors: Anza-Borrego wildflower crowds, winter snowbirds at the Borrego Springs and De Anza country clubs, and Tesla drivers who came over Montezuma Grade and realized the climb back out costs far more than the descent in. Summer heat makes it worse, because AC load on a 110 degree afternoon shaves real miles, and there's no fast charging on the desert floor to fix a thin margin.
