This was my 2nd time hiking Mount Helena. The weather was very chilly and windy even at the trail head. We all 13 of us started the hike ~ 9:00 in the morning. Clear and sunny sky with lots of great views. As we reached the peak we saw snow here and there and trail was wet little bit but not muddy.
Everyone needed another layer of jacket and beanies at the peak. I think the temps were in early 30s. The views from the peak were breathtaking as we can see two nearby peaks covered with snow and the mountains nearby are lush green.

Me and another hiker hiked another peak while descending.

Overall a beautiful hike with the group
