Membership Join at your own risk! Joining the Club - All we ask from our members is: Maintain your 4X4 so it's reliable out on the trail. Have the required safety equipment. (See Below) Don't act like an idiot while on the trail. Some examples of diotic behavior are (but not limited to); driving cross-country, setting fires, shooting firearms, harrasing wildlife, etc. We do not kill scorpions, spiders or rattle snakes. If you are afraid of these animals and have the impulse to kill them when you see them, do not come out with us! Respect the environment so we don't get blamed for trashing it.- Be considerate and help others when in trouble.
- Don't blame us if your rig gets damaged, or you get injured. We do our best to make every event safe. However, sometimes a driver might take the wrong line, or just won't listen to the spotter and things happen. In the years since the inception of the Yuma 4-Wheelers, we have had a handful of minor things like flat tires and bent bumpers and one (1) roll over (driver was not injured). As for personal injuries, we have has some scrapes occur when someone happened to slip and fall on the rocks.
