On a greyish late November day we hiked a double loop route from Rose Hill Park.  We started by hiking down a single track trail toward West Juniper.

We traversed north onto Rose Hill Ridge to enjoy the views.

We crossed Rose Hill Road and followed double tracks up Joyce Gulch, passing an old homestead.

Our route followed a benchland area, winding its way toward Peterson Creek Gorge.

We turned onto the gasline track and hiked back over a series of hills we have referred to as The Roller Coaster, all the way to Rose Hill.   We then followed single tracks up a gully to Rose Hill Park.

The whole route took about 2.5 hours, hiking a combination of double tracks and single tracks, all in the shoulder season, going quietly, leaving nothing but temporary footprints.
