Are the pumps for potable water still working, have handles or do need to filter water from them.

Have done trail before - Pit to DC (2020).

Handles have been removed before. NPS wanted to get rid of portable classification due to river water getting into wells.

Pumps are up and working as of yesterday.

There's an updated list of available pumps on the National Park Service's Current Park Conditions under "Remote Water Faucet List": https://www.nps.gov/choh/planyourvisit/conditions.htm
