Out on a rainy day with Outdoornut22 I suppose what better do we have to do. this was a very simple drive buy. I think next time we will have to continue along the road and check out the campsite it looked like a lovely area, but maybe in some better weather!

Out in the rain today with Sophoutloud and had about the unluckiest caching day we have had in a long time with only a 50% success rate it almost wasn't worth getting drenched for Very Happy quick and easy to find this one and we quickly dashed out of the car in the rain to snap a pic of the tower

On an extremely hot sickly day there was not much else to do besides computer or the box so I went for a drive & completed roadside virtual & trigs – this was 1 of them in the greater area.
A nice quick 1 to complete – many thanks Clan GriffinClan Griffin

Came looking for two trigs but could only manage this one. Went round the gate to get a closer look as there was a lookout noted on the map and thought we might get a view to go with the trig, but only bush.
*Overall Experience: 3*

Found myself in the area today 4wd-ing with some friends. So we stopped to grab a pic through the trees.
 
Found this trig with Team Merlin when out for a caching run to claim a few caches in the area.
With GZ in hand a nice quick find.

Was at the Bellbird lookout so this one being not far away got a look in also. Some good views out to the valleys on the way to this trig. You shouldn't miss it when you get close.

First find of my trek across the Blue Mtns via Bells Line of Road. Easy enough after following the GCA navigator. Trees meant I needed to walk in to get the shot.
 
14-Jul-13
Had to get up the side track to get a reasonable look at the tower.
