Start from the intersection of Mt. Helena Ridge Trail and McKelvey and head northeast, hugging the contours of the mountain. You'll see trails to your left which will take you around the north side of the mountain and to your right, which will take you around the south side. Continue straight ahead until the trail intersects with the 1906 Trail.
