Found, no hint needed a single marking was enough to trigger the thoughts
 
I opened my GC app hoping to find something about the 2 drowned folks beside this trig and find this instead. Still intrigued about what might have happened to Dennis Cochran and Richard Guy on April 16th 1864.

This is an awesome old trig. I love this sort. Amazing views from here also.

Find 453 for the tribe

Collecting our first Mid North coast wander caches ever today in the Harrington / Crowdy Head area. I hated coming here as a kid, the place seemed super boring apart from walking on the mudflats which were filled with crabs. Today was much more pleasant, we loved the riverside path, playgrounds, views, local pizza , coffee and juice! The views from Crowdy Head were great!

This is a great spot! Cracking views from here. Will have to walk out along that breakwall next visit.

Cache located as described, consisted solely of a logbook in a ziplock bag, log was wet/unsignable. Have taken a photo for proof. ? is it meant to have a container?

TFTC!
