I thought this was going to be harder to get to, but it was not a problem/. Strange trig indeed.

I pointed the camera and hoped that was where this trig was, but I see I photographed the same place as others. TFTC.

Strange little trig.....but the photo was grabbed between the bars of the fence....all while watching that last step.
#GA565 - 12:50; After a nice breakfast in Bondi, it was time to head north along the coastal cliffs to grab a few trigs while the geohoney and I were in the area. Parked up above this one and had to make our way down the steep little lane and then slip in through the golf course to find this tricky trig. Got some snaps and all was good in the end.

Odd little trig. Approach from the south, not north and you'll have no worries. Just look out for drunk Englishmen taking on the Scottish game... Great views!

I found the correct structure - another odd trig. Found at 2:56 pm.

Very odd looking trig, I could figure out which pole it had to be from the fence. Doesn't look anything like a trig I have ever seen.
A was heading for this and found the Dales Cache multi was closer, so did that. At 1145pm it was hard to work out how to reach the cache so I packed it in and went home instead.
I was not sure that this one could be seen as it is on Water Board property, but as I got closer to the gate and fence it became obvious that it was still there.
I got to talking to 2 workers in the compound and asked if they could let me in, and while they would have been happy to do so they did not have the key to this gate which is very rarely used.
I also asked about the instrument package on the Trig and they seemed to think it was a satellite data transmitter.
