SUMMARY:VIRTUAL - Getting Batty
DESCRIPTION: Come join the Kamloops Naturalist Club for a hike\, a bonus June event. This event is open to Juniper residents\, Naturalist Club members and Nature Kids BC. We will have a shorter hike for families. I will head back with those wanting a shorter hike and Diane will head out further for those keen to hike more. I will bring along a scavenger hunt to keep the little ones engaged. See the information from Diane below: This is a scenic hike through Crown land between Juniper Ridge and Barnhartvale. We will meet at the trailhead\, which is between the houses at 3072 and 3076 Similkameen Dr. Parking is available on the street. The hike follows bike trails through dry grassland\, Douglas-fir forest with an understory of pine grass\, and a moist gully with Douglas maple and Saskatoon bushes. We’ll stop periodically to discuss the vegetation\, bird life\, and geology. The hike is moderate in difficulty\, with some steep and uneven sections near the start where the trail drops down into a dry creek bed. Good footwear\, a hat\, and sunblock are highly recommended. Participants can choose between two options: a short hike to a lookout (distance about 3 km\, net elevation change 50 meters\, duration 1 hour) and a longer loop through forest trails (distance about 6 km\, net elevation change 150 meters\, duration 2.5 hours). Children are welcome but parents need to accompany and be responsible for their children. The trip is subject to cancellation in the unlikely event that the weather is rainy\, as the trails may be slippery when wet.  To register email kamloops@naturekidsbc.ca

SUMMARY:TRICITIES - Winter Scavenger Hunt
DESCRIPTION: Come join the Kamloops Naturalist Club for a hike\, a bonus June event. This event is open to Juniper residents\, Naturalist Club members and Nature Kids BC. We will have a shorter hike for families. I will head back with those wanting a shorter hike and Diane will head out further for those keen to hike more. I will bring along a scavenger hunt to keep the little ones engaged. See the information from Diane below: This is a scenic hike through Crown land between Juniper Ridge and Barnhartvale. We will meet at the trailhead\, which is between the houses at 3072 and 3076 Similkameen Dr. Parking is available on the street. The hike follows bike trails through dry grassland\, Douglas-fir forest with an understory of pine grass\, and a moist gully with Douglas maple and Saskatoon bushes. We’ll stop periodically to discuss the vegetation\, bird life\, and geology. The hike is moderate in difficulty\, with some steep and uneven sections near the start where the trail drops down into a dry creek bed. Good footwear\, a hat\, and sunblock are highly recommended. Participants can choose between two options: a short hike to a lookout (distance about 3 km\, net elevation change 50 meters\, duration 1 hour) and a longer loop through forest trails (distance about 6 km\, net elevation change 150 meters\, duration 2.5 hours). Children are welcome but parents need to accompany and be responsible for their children. The trip is subject to cancellation in the unlikely event that the weather is rainy\, as the trails may be slippery when wet.  To register email kamloops@naturekidsbc.ca

We’ll stop periodically to discuss the vegetation\, bird life\, and geology. The hike is moderate in difficulty\, with some steep and uneven sections near the start where the trail drops down into a dry creek bed. Good footwear\, a hat\, and sunblock are highly recommended. Participants can choose between two options: a short hike to a lookout (distance about 3 km\, net elevation change 50 meters\, duration 1 hour) and a longer loop through forest trails (distance about 6 km\, net elevation change 150 meters\, duration 2.5 hours). Children are welcome but parents need to accompany and be responsible for their children. The trip is subject to cancellation in the unlikely event that the weather is rainy\, as the trails may be slippery when wet.  To register email kamloops@naturekidsbc.ca

SUMMARY:WESTSHORE - Mill Hill Hike
DESCRIPTION: Come join the Kamloops Naturalist Club for a hike\, a bonus June event. This event is open to Juniper residents\, Naturalist Club members and Nature Kids BC. We will have a shorter hike for families. I will head back with those wanting a shorter hike and Diane will head out further for those keen to hike more. I will bring along a scavenger hunt to keep the little ones engaged. See the information from Diane below: This is a scenic hike through Crown land between Juniper Ridge and Barnhartvale. We will meet at the trailhead\, which is between the houses at 3072 and 3076 Similkameen Dr. Parking is available on the street. The hike follows bike trails through dry grassland\, Douglas-fir forest with an understory of pine grass\, and a moist gully with Douglas maple and Saskatoon bushes. We’ll stop periodically to discuss the vegetation\, bird life\, and geology. The hike is moderate in difficulty\, with some steep and uneven sections near the start where the trail drops down into a dry creek bed. Good footwear\, a hat\, and sunblock are highly recommended.
