Every time I’ve driven past a particular wind turbine farm outside of Evanston, Wyoming, I only see 2-3 turbines turning very slowly. Is this because they are efficient enough that a couple of the entire farm are only needed under normal conditions, and the rest are there for some kind of surge capability?

Several reasons: supply surplus leads to switching off turbines; bad wind farm design with turbines too close together (which forces the turbine on the Lee side to shut off because of not enough wind); maintenance and repair.
