These trip category pre-requisites are guidelines, so that members and prospective members can judge for themselves which trips are appropriate for them. The Trip Leader has the authority to exercise his or her discretion and allow or disallow individuals on a trip on the grounds of safety.
It is recommended that novices on Family Shiny trips and members new to the Shiny 4x4 category make themselves known to the Trip Leader and are allocated a “buddy” to guide and assist them during the trip.
