Well, that was easy. I had parked to take a photograph of Hammondville Trig. Took that and then looked at my Garmin for the next trig. 28 metres away only . Turned around and took a photograph of this one too .

Found this trig while out on a caching run through the Liverpool area. Total haul for the day was over ten caches including 6 trigs, some GC caches and a virtual.
This was my second GCA cache for the day. Another trig I have seen so many times from the car while driving along the M5 and I have been tempted just to take a snap from the car. Today however I decided to try and find this properly. This one was an easy find, snapped the required photos and then back in the car to get out of the heat!
Thanks for the cache Geocaching Australia
GCA Find #188
Hoping this find will move me one step closer to the destination, be that either the blue tile or my goal of 100 trigs!

Another 1 completed on the way home from work while it’s a long day light, nice to visit. The hardest part was to find the way in to this area & take the shots, this is a new housing estate- well the modern 1 – no place to park, shots taken in the direction of the setting sun - thanks

Heading to Sydney today for a doctors appointment so started early to grab a few trigs. Managed 10 for the day. This was number six. Didn't even have to leave the car.

Out with alnic39 on the way to the Shire to pick up a few cachers stopped here on the way down took the photo from the vantage point. Can't get close enough because of the construction in the area. Thanks for the trig

Very quiet at the golf course today as the course was closed to play due to the recent poor weather. TFTT.

#GA416 - 14:20; I suggested to Sol de lune some time back that we should do a day run to Sydney to pick up some of the GCA trigs and caches on offer. A couple of weeks ago we identified an opportunity timing wise and so it was that we made our way north today, collecting a total of 32 trigs for the day. We were able to drive into the Golf Course carpark and bag two for the price of one! TFTC Geocaching Australia

A day trip planned with LuckyL10n to start grabbing a few trigs in different areas of Sydney. Hit Campbelltown, Liverpool, Fairfield and Bankstown today...and grabbed a total of 32. Back in a couple of months for another go.
Parked in the Golf Course car and had no problems. The photos were soon grabbed.
Cerberus rules here.

I think I played golf here many years ago when I had the time and it wasn't so expensive. Like others, found the golf club carpark to be the best spot, parked about 30 metres away.
Second Trig for today's short walk from Liverpool station (12km). This com tower is the actual trig, not to be confused with the smaller tower next to it or the other taller tower next to the reservoir. Quite a selection of antennas and whatnots here!

As with the Hammondville Trig, the easiest spot for this was from the carpark in the golf club. There are two towers, and as seems to be common with the tower type trigs, I think the trig point is ythe top of the tower.
Close to Hammondville Trig is this one. Even though GPS wanted me to get on the M5, I veered off and managed to get to Fitzgerald St where I could see the tower. Snapped the pics, but unsure as to where the Trig itself was sitting on the tower, unless it's really small.
