Val d'Or

There are fast chargers at regular intervals along the highway leading to Val d’Or, the city where I stayed.

Then came a big gap in the charging network on the road to Val d’Or.

Chargers are plentiful in Val d’Or and the surrounding area, and there are a surprising number of electric vehicle owners.

There is a gap of about 150 miles along Route 117, the highway I would take to Val d’Or.

I had enough juice to get back to the hotel in Val d’Or, where I was able to quickly upgrade my cellphone plan.
