It's looking really good so far. I hope the Bavarian village theming is really good and intact despite the rumors of cuts to the coaster. It will be interesting to see how the coaster compares to Pheonix Rising when it opens.
 
Gotta make room for the sprocket. It is interesting how high the beginning of the lift is in relation to previous installs. Makes me wonder if the train is going to slow to a crawl and be fed into the lift via drive wheels or the speed of the train will just carry it into the lift (Lochness lift 2 style)
 
I wonder what the total elevation change is? Starting to look like more than I was expecting.
 
The way this ride stays relatively low to the ground made me wonder, do any of the other inverts in the US take advantage of terrain? I know Alpie's ending does a little, but it's nowhere near the way something like Nemesis at Alton Towers is built into the landscape.

Alpengeist and Banshee both use the terrain throughout their layouts quite a bit!

Keep in mind that Nemesis at Alton Towers had a lot of excavation and terraforming done to it due to the park's height restriction on building attractions and wasn't built and designed into the natural landscape like Alp was.
