Some hikes are with the Kamloops Hiking Club (mostly Wednesdays) and are restricted to members, some hikes are solo efforts, and some are open to joint planning. Most paddling will be on Mondays or Fridays and the time and location will depend on wind and weather conditions. On Sundays, the choice may be tennis, paddling, or hiking. Weather will determine the best choice.
