Hiked to Little Dome yesterday. The trail was still snowpacked in places but most of the snow has melted.

Anyone been to the Splatte lately? Turkey road accessibility? Approaches to Sheeps Nose or Thunderidge deeply drifted or dry?

Turkey Rocks road condition a few days ago was WI1 M1.

The road to Turkey has a lot of ice on it after the turnoff a mile or so in. Sheepsnose is easy to get to though and very little snow on the approach, just some stuff in the shade. Rock was great on Wednesday.
