Helms Picnic Area is a day-use facility on PG&E lands near Lake Wishon offering picnic sites and parking access to the reservoir.

As part of ongoing improvements under the new license, PG&E plans to move up to five picnic sites to a flatter, more accessible area adjacent to the southeast corner of the parking area and will reconstruct the parking area and picnic sites with accessibility improvements scheduled for completion within 5-8 years of license issuance.
