We were unsure about driving in here to locate this trig as we saw a sign saying "No Unauthorised Access" but we ventured in anyway, the photo was taken and then we had to wait for a procession of trucks to pass before we could get on the road again.

Despite the signs saying the road was for mining only, a trig is more important...so...

Found by Pi.

Wandering around Dharawal NP we ended up heading back to the Colliery road via the 10N fire trail and I got some shots of this TP.

Just a quick detour from Appin road has you at the mine shaft. Good views of the trig from the road at a 200 m distance!
