Unknown Helton Falls is a 25-foot cascading waterfall found in the upper reaches of Helton Creek, well upstream from the popular Helton Creek Falls. This sliding-type drop lies about 300 feet upstream from a culvert along US Highway 19/129. There is no established trail to the falls, and it's best seen in wet weather.
