Mt Rexmore-New Rose Canyon loop, starting at Santa Susana Pass Park/Lassen St

Details
COME HIKE A NEW LOOP TRAIL WHICH I COMPLETED THIS WEEK!
Lots of Rocks on which to play and 2 Hills to Climb, with Wide open views of the west valley
THE PLAN: from the Lassen trailhead, we go to the labyrinth rock, climb around a bit, check out the heart rock, then climb the old Stagecoach trail up to Lilac lane, then climb up to Mt Rexmore via the new Rose Canyon loop (which includes the north 2 peaks of Chatsworth Peak, 900 feet elevation gain from where we park), then drop down (300 feet) to Lilac Lane back to the Stagecoach trail and go down to the starting spot.
HIKE ROUTE: I plan on us getting to Labyrinth rocks by 1:30 and stay until 2.
