Third attempt at this one. Just read the instructions from the CO of the nearby cache...explains it all. Don't listen to me...

This little hill has been on my to do list for years and it did not disappoint. Well worth the stroll up the hill and along the tracks. Lots of bird life on this early day in Spring made an interesting diversion from the track. The Vista was gorgeous with Crystal clear skies that allowed the horizon to be so far away. Well worth the diversion, I plan to come up one night as well.

yay finally made it to the top of the hill what a great view of Wagga I love these two points. TFTT
I have another day off work. I guess I could go get some geocaches for the last souvenir of the month. It was a great day as the warm sun was shining and the birds were singing. All this and great locations made for a fun day. Thanks to all CO’s for the fun I had and the caches I found today.
Nice quick find while catching in the area. Tftc

The last of Trigs found while in Wagga Wagga for a CITO Event (having come down from Taree the night before).
Took the walk up from the start of the mountain biking trail head/parking area.
A nicely painted (WHITE) concrete pedestal, no post or vanes, but the name plate is at least there.

Grabbed a not so good selfie while up here chasing some GC caches in the dark with Rapidlywild and FurfacesLL. Great views up here at night!

Collected this one on a Wagga Trip with FurfacesLL and Boot65. Took a quick shot while collecting "Go SupaRoosta!" and "Aerial View"
Thanks for sharing

After a couple of did not finds in this park a nice simple find was just what I needed. After this decided that due to the wind, cold and clouds decided it probably wasn't a good idea to be so far from the car so headed back to do some in town driveby's.
And the answer is..... SURVEY.
If you didn't log the GCA trig does that mean you didn't really go to the Ozmegaopoly WP "Geostation" but traded info from another team?
SHOCK!

Co Ords close to Northern Lights. Bit hard to get a decent photo at night with the Mobile phone camera. Found Easter Minday night whilst doing the Fire tackscaches on this hill. Had the company of Kaisho53. 2130 at night. Thanks for publishing this one. Was going to do it myelf when I got home.
Logged this trig point as a 'just in case' cache during the Mega Event. Also two other caches very near by! Gorgeous views from here!
Found with some visitors & forgot it was on my phone until I checked it. Another top spot that is going to be harder to access soon.
As a part of the Oz Mega event I visited this one late on saturday!
Beautiful views over Wagga from here and a nice park nearby where we did a 5/5 cache!

Found while at the Oz Mega Event, in the presence of Everlasting and others - a great time and a great view. Our thanks to the Oz Mega team, SamWalkers for the publish and to Everlasting for letting us know. We enjoyed coming to this location (I am not sure the car did though).
