ASP.NET MVC - Get ViewContext from helper method

Question

I would like to create a static helper method that I can call from a view.

Is it possible for a helper method to have access to the current ViewContext without needing to explicitly pass the ViewContext to the method as a parameter?

Something like HttpContext.Current except for ViewContext.

Thanks for any help. -Keith

public static class XTenshuns
{
    public static string MyHtmlHelper(this HtmlHelper helper)
    {
        // it's right here -> helper.ViewContext
    }
}
