Hellman Trail - Whitter - 4.78 Miles


A view of the trail we just hiked across.
Water reservior out in the distance... must remember NOT to go out that way because it ultimately dead ends into a neighborhood.

Looking down the steep trail that we thought was Hellman Trail but ended up being a closed trail due to probably it's steepness and soft dirt! Unfortunately we did not come across a sign until AFTER we made the trek down!

TT braving it ahead of me. No turning back now.

A paused moment to snap an uphill view. Still not showing the degree of steepness.


Great to be back on the trails after a week and a half break. This trail started with a hill and probably the biggest portion of our elevation gain and ended with a "slide" down a closed trail. We'd do this one again but now know better which ways to go and not to go. Signage could be better. Had to park on neighborhood street because small lot was full. Took us 2 hours and 11 minutes to complete.
