Driving past here to the Sita site for a chemical clean out and thought, this has to be a TP GA Cache so took some photos and I was correct.
In the photos there is my Cache Pointer in the shot.

We visited the Leumah Reservoir as we travelled through parts of Sydney today and located the trig point on top. The required photo has been added to the Gallery. Thanks for the cache.
Had to pick up an expensive car part so to a justify the drive / purchase I completed some trigs in the greater area – well this 1 was a little hard but got there in the end – had to drive around the block a couple of times it pick it up – thanks again

Found at 2:42pm. After finding some geocaching caches my mission was to do some of the Geocaching Australia Trigs so I dragged the girlfriend around and fortunately her phone camera worked quite well and could take my GPS/Camera/phone into the picture. Another cool shot of the trig and my GPS, lol.

#GA407 - 11:35; 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 in fairly close to this one but needed to take our pics over the rooftops of the suburban sprawl! 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. (And have now managed to get my punctuation correct). Back in a couple of months for another go.
Photos were grabbed from the nearby road (over houses) and all was good.
Cerberus rules here as well.

Spied the trig as I was driving by. Two little spaniels with big round pleading eyes (like you see on an Oxfam poster) yapped at me hopefully as I got out of my car - sorry fellas, I've got to get a snap of that trig so no time for petting.
Found at 3:43 pm.

Found together with rogerw3 while on an afternoon's trig hunting expedition in the area -- one of 13 trigs I logged in the space of five hours!
Red vanes above a green reservoir -- very Christmasy!

Just down the road from home (although it is an uphill ride nearly all the way).
Easy find. Another local water tower that I didn't think to check if it had a trigpoint on top. Rode my old mtb over for a closer look and got some photos. Had to head right over to near the houses to get a photo of the actual trig marker.

Found today while looking for Gnomes. I was not sure that there was a Trig on this reservoir as the Google Earth picture was a bit ambiguous. However I went to the spot and sure enough there it is, nice and red.
