Pros:
Jericho Hill offers the opportunity for a casual round near the UBC campus. The terrain is dotted with trees that are well enough integrated into the course to force you to hit a few windows or shape a few lines, though for the most part errant throws aren't punished (although occasionally a copse of trees is there to swallow a shot if you're not careful at a few points).
The most distinctive feature at Jericho is, perhaps obviously, the omnipresent elevation. The course's 9 baskets are laid across a broad, sloping hill, putting elevation in play to varying degrees throughout. Usually you're playing perpendicular to the slope, making rollaways the biggest threat (and they will happen), although there are a few places where you work more directly with or against the terrain to great effect, including at least one nice uphill shot off the tee. The constant slope gives otherwise-straightforward approaches and putts a pucker factor that was highly welcome, if potentially frustrating, of course.
Jericho plays quickly and casually. The challenge factor of the course layout isn't high, but since it doesn't seem to be well-trafficked (anything but), there's a lot of safari potential here if you're interested in blazing your own trail.
Jericho is conveniently close to Queen Elizabeth Park and Quilchena, making it easy to hit all three courses in the span of an afternoon.
Cons:
Jericho Hill is a fairly unrefined course: the grass seems to be well mowed, but tee signs are absent and tees are natural, rutted, and occasionally pitted with roots. Driving behind or to the side of them was a common occurence on my visit.
As mentioned above, the challenge factor isn't high. There's nothing here to really challenge an experienced player's game (except maybe dealing with approaching on sloped terrain): the lines aren't particularly unique or memorable, there isn't a lot of shot shaping, the distances are pretty self-similar and unremarkable (mostly sitting in the 225'-300' range), and the landscape is too open to punish bad shots or challenge approaches. Don't come expecting to have your game pushed.
Navigation would be dodgy without help from a local: the lack of tee signs coupled with the ability to often sight multiple tees and baskets from one location makes it hard to follow the course's layout. It's not horrendous; just be prepared for a few potential moments of uncertainty.
The course is located adjacent to a small school; there seems to be the potential for conflict with the school's students depending on the day and time you play. We didn't have any problems on our visit, though.
Other Thoughts:
Jericho apparently features some tonals in addition to the 9 baskets; these are apparently located on the opposite side of the property as the baskets. I didn't look for, see, or play the tonals on my visit.
Jericho gives you a fun, casual, quick visit if you don't come expecting a disc golf revelation. Having other courses nearby and accessible helps supplement the experience here. Jericho was the least interesting of the three western Vancouver courses I played upon my visit in March 2014. I enjoyed Quilchena the most, by a notable margin.
Many thanks to JedV for being such a gracious course guide during my time in Vancouver! Good guy.
