Trail Overview
Helena Ridge is a volunteer-maintained trail spur off Murphy Creek Trail. The road is mostly well-laid rock and dirt with the occasional pothole and one deep rut in the last section. The end of the trail offers the most amazing viewpoint as well as a dispersed camp spot but this is a somewhat busy trail so you will have other people turning around there. Cell service was maintained on almost the entire trail with AT&T and very good service at the viewpoint at the end. There are a few short-side spurs that are a bit more technical if you choose. There are also a couple of very small offshoots that could lend to good campsites throughout.
