Did this hike on Sept. 20th, 2024. There was snow on the ground in some locations and lots on the mountain tops around from probably a few days ago when there was a cold spell. This hike is rated as difficult but that sounds incorrect. I would rate this hike easy. Very little elevation gain and no technical parts. In comparison, Mt. Dana is rated moderate and it's very hard because of the elevation. Spillway Lake is a beautiful hike, nevertheless
