| Details: |
After a great 2011 Xmas at Peaceful Bay, we have booked 10 sites together (so we do not have to be spread out like this year). Deposits are not required till about March. No real fixed plans, just plenty of time at the beach, perhaps a winery or two and probably some day trips to Broke Inlet, Windy Harbour or perhaps even Calcup Hill via Summertime Track. Great place to bring the kayaks, snorkeling and fishing gear.

| Frequently Asked Questions |
| Can visitors (non-members) come along on these club trips? |
Members of West Coast 4x4 can invite visitors to attend any 4WD trip,
except where visitors are excluded from the trip, by a comment (in the
details like "members only" or "no visitors"). Also, the number of
trips that you can attend as a visitor is limited, and to continue
attending trips you will need to become a member (see below).
Note: Visitors are not permitted on "Serious" (six
star) trips.
|
| How do I become a member of West Coast 4x4? |
You must first attend some trips as a visitor, before you are eligible to
join. Once eligible, the committee then decides if you will be accepted as
a member. See the Join West Coast 4x4
page for full details.
|
| Who is permitted to lead a trip? |
Any member of West Coast 4x4 can lead a trip, providing that they have the
support of a Track Marshal. All trips are only sanctioned by West Coast 4x4
when a trips leader is assigned to a trip and the trip is documented on
this page. Please email a Track Marshal
for more information.
|
| Is there recovery equipment for members to borrow? |
Yes. The club owns a range of recovery
equipment. Track Marshals can borrow any or all of the equipment for any trip
provided it is not already booked out. Members are responsible for breakages
of equipment unless caused by normal wear and tear.
