Sitting around waiting for a friend looking out over the water at a nearby park, I noticed this trig, so went for a wander. I can't help but wonder what it looked like when first built.

I like it out this way. I found an old map from the 1940s of this area that had latter been annotated with Trig point details. Using Queensland Globe to confirm what I’ve found on this map I’m finding it’s very accurate. A quick find here before a morning walk. Thanks for the cache Smile
