Here is a raw image - no annotations - of the Santa Elena site
from Sentinel II on April 24th, 2022 or about 48 hours ago. The thumbnail at right shows the satellite name, Sentinel II, sun angle of 65 degrees, cloud cover was of 33% over the larger image from this pass.
This is exactly as shown for any who call up the imagery - typically passes over Sonora occur every 2 or 3 days - the is the most recent image avbl.
This is low resolution - but the best available that I've found without a hefty subscription fee or per image pricing. Anyone can access the same data from the European Space Agency site eos.com. The comaprison tool with icon at upper right is very useful in studying changes at this or any site.
Time of day, sun angle of the pass, cloud cover - even thin cirrus - can change the appearance of the terrain from pass to pass. This pass appears to be cloud free over the small area in the this image. Some caution is needed in interpreting any imagery give the factors mentioned above.

There is a second image taken Jan 17th, 2022 of the same area. I won't categorize the status of the leach but in this shot the pad is fully dark - almost black. You have to take what you get as to image availability - this region is moslty cloud free but in winter there are many days in a row with cloud cover and even thin cirrus can affect the view of the ground so caution is needed in drawing conclusions. I am making no assertions - just showing that near real time data is available at no cost for any who visit and spend some time with the tools. There is a learning curve. If needed scroll right on this and the earlier shot to see the entire image.
