I was passing through the area to visit my folks and decided to grab this one as it has always been sitting there to be done. I took the old man along with me but he is getting rather on and crabby now so pretty much wasn't too helpful other than where Mimosa Rd was. Anyway found it 7:40pm first one side and then went around to the other side where a much better picture and access was possible.

Driving down this took the slight detour to look for this trig. Sitting in the car looking up previous logs trying to work out what I was looking for decided I must have been in the wrong soot so decided to try another street drove forward 10 metres with the plan of doing a u turn when I had the "there it is" moment. Stopped an took the photo then headed of. Thanks for the trig

#GA420 - 15:25; I suggested to Sol de lune some time back that we should do a day run to Sydney to pick up some of the GCA trigs and caches on offer. A couple of weeks ago we identified an opportunity timing wise and so it was that we made our way north today, collecting a total of 32 trigs for the day. Managed to spot the trig from a side road and took the snaps from there. TFTC Geocaching Australia

A day trip planned with LuckyL10n to start grabbing a few trigs in different areas of Sydney. Hit Campbelltown, Liverpool, Fairfield and Bankstown today...and grabbed a total of 32. Back in a couple of months for another go.
Could spot the trig from one of the nearby roads so o problems here and the photos were soon grabbed.
Cerberus will rule here.

Had to be in the nearby industrial park so this was an easy stop and go!

Thankfully it was a Sunday while seeking out this trig within the industrial estate. The reservoir was found easily enough, but on the first walk across some vacant land no trig was to be sighted. Another street, and a long distance view up green patch between buildings. Not sure the photos do justice (seeing now others logged) and will try again when down that way again ... with a better camera photolens.

Found this one with pjmpjm on our afternoon Trig hunt.
Typical reservoir Trig, tubular steel frame with mast and vanes over a steel post.
There are several places to spot this one, but of course the closer you get the less of the trig you see, this was my compromise.

Found this reservoir trig with rogerw3 while on a trig hunting expedition in the area.
This one --otherwise unremarkable -- was my 301st trig . . .

1 thing I’m learning while completing these trigs is that the distance shots are the go, while I was driving along The Horsley Drive I could see it in the distance, so I pulled over & took the shots at 2 locations along this Rd, thanks

I needed a cache for the day and was in the area for work. After the job drove over to find the water tower complete with trig on top. Only had the phone to photo the GPS and tower with though. Cheers.
FTF We were in the area this afternoon so made this our 3rd FTF, after two nearby GC caches. The area is fenced off and the trig is located on top of a water tank. Parked in nearby street a took photos from co-ordinates S33 51.082 E150 53.458.
