Description

A trig point (also known as a Trigonometric Station) typically consists of a black disc on top of four metal legs or concrete pillar, resembling a navigation beacon. It is also accompanied by a metal disc, which is located directly below the centre point of the tripod or on top of the pillar itself.

Trig points are generally located at the top of hills or points of prominence in the landscape.
Many provide unique views and challenges, with some being difficult to access.

These points were regarded as valuable to surveyors, providing reference points for measuring distance and direction, and assisting in the creation of maps.

To log a find on the Geocaching Australia website, you will need to include a picture of the trig point. You are encouraged to leave a description of your journey in your log to help others in finding the trig point.

After a fun morning of diving out at Montague island and then a lunch with a diving friend who I have not caught up with in too long, it was time to head home. I took the southern route as there is plenty of caching that way at the moment, but I was struggling with a deteriorating back and only did a few of the available caches in each area.

While stopped at the air field, I took a long shot over to this hill.
Thanks for the cache

A long shot indeed. I did not get to the entrance to see if it was accessible, as the long weekend traffic was full on.
