Logs
After spending Christmas with the 'ex-Laws' I headed to Newcastle to drop my son off. The next morning I headed to northern Sydney to gather the 'last' of the Waymarks that I had missed on other trips to this area. FRom Manly I was headed down to Balmoral Beach when I noticed this vaned Trig, high on an apartment building, so stopped and took a zoomed shot with the camera, and then worked out what it was.

Usually see CORS on a roof. Nice to see a few vanes in the area.

After a day of hand made chocolate making and a couple of cache finds afterwards, I didn't want to miss picking up a few trigs before I got stuck in the miserable Sydney traffic. Parking was tricky as the locals use this street as a short cut. Got a very quick snap and then go out of their way.
Another day run to the big smoke with LuckyL10n....mainly for him to visit a friend in RNS, but after visiting hours, we hit the trail for a few caches before heading home....
Next stop on our "Tour North of the Harbour Bridge" and this was an easy snap from the side of the road. No problems and another trig is claimed.

#GA782 - 15:25; I had to make an unscheduled trip to Sydney to visit a mate in hospital and was able to persuade Sol de lune to provide company for the trip. Once visiting hours were over we decided to visit an area relatively unexplored by us before heading for home. After a traffic snarl as we approached the Spit Bridge, which held us up for a little while, we had our first two finds sorted and were now headed for Bradley's Head Road where there were four planned stops, including this one. Turns out that King Max Street gave us a good view, so we came, we saw, we snapped, then continued on our way. TFTT Geocaching Australia

Zal took me to the Zoo today! We stopped quickly here to photo the two trigs in Mosman. Real one is better.

Have been past here several times since this was published but I must not have been chasing trigs. Today on our return from a nice walk around Bradleys Head I spotted the trig driving past and pulled up in the side street. Snapped a couple of shots and left. Not many trigs left in this area for me.

After a successful visit to Mosman Council I rewarded myself with some trig hunting. This was the first for the day. Found at 11:55 am.

Yeah proper trig that is better. After the dull Passive one this was much better Easy to get a shot.

last Trig for the day's outing, at least I knew this one was there as shown by the previous logs, but I expected to have to walk around the building to get the best photo as it turned out no trouble at all.
The Trig looks to be in great condition.

On our way to a tour of Middle Head, we stopped by for a photo. Gee, they'll put a trig on top of just about anything these days!
Working out in the area, I had only to detour a few blocks to find and snap the pic for the find.
A funny spot for a trig really I think.

Swung past and found this one today, with the GPS in the foreground it was throwing out the focus, and getting my head in the shot would have meant the trig would have been too small to see!
Finished for the day at Middle Head, I noticed this Trig and no finds...COOL...a FTF on a trig Pulled up on the side of the road and managed to snap this one in the fading light. It's the thing, next to the thing, behind the other thing on the roof...Up there...!!!
