Nothing beats a two-for-one trig...except maybe THREE! I think we have the old trig between these two. Will see if I can vet some intel on that.

Stopped by on the way home from the reptile park. Didnt realise there was a trig reference point on top of the tower. Quick find for the gang.

We were in the area for some good Central Coast hiking caches with Banj5150, and grabbed trigs as we went. I'm ashamed to say we didn't even know these two trigs were her until we got out of the car, we're thankful to Garmins 'closest-cache' feature!

I joined a trip to Maitland with Aquilus1, dty73, Tankengine, Barb2e, Kitty Katch & Joolay. The weekends main game was to do the dogs head series, but along the way we did some old caches around Sydney and did as many Maitland caches as time allowed. The return journey was via some old caches and some challenges that may or may not be met one day.

Thanks

When I came across the nearby trig pedestal on 25 March 2020, I made sure I got my photo with the 3 towers nearby ... One of which is this new trig. Thank you ladies and gentlemen!

Thanks for the Trig cache! Very Happy

I was doing a bit of aerial work for another cache nearby and noticed there's not one but two trigs here, although I suppose this one is o the passive variety. The reference point is that steel post at the top that's probably a lightning rod too. Of course, I had no way to get to the top and verify the location.
