New Hyak lift status?

We drove by Hyak over Labor Day to go hiking and huckleberry picking. We saw a bunch of lift towers in the lower parking lot but didn't get a good view of how many are installed.

Anyone have a good sense of how much remains to do and the chances of it getting installed in time for this year? Obviously they planned for it to be done in time but the best laid plans have been known to go awry...

and what appears to be the official word:

The chopper should be installing the towers within the next two weeks from what I hear. The summit folks say everything is on schedule.

Does anyone know what type of lift is going on the frontside? High speed quad?

I guess the chopper is supposed to be doing more concrete work tomorrow, towers next week.
The lift on the front is the old Silver Fir lift, that was a triple.

The rumor I heard was that the old Silver Fir triple was going on the backside.
