Camping at Bummaroo Ford and exploring the area meant we had a few goes at finding a good spot to photograph this trig. When we finally found the best place someone else was there taking their own picture! It is still in great condition and can easily be seen from a large stretch of road.
Sophoutloud and I are on an adventure to Canberra via Goulburn, we managed to spy this one while we were driving along and managed to stop and get an ok shot even though the sun was setting

Travelled home with Smittengranny today and photographed this trig on the way. Thanks.
Boy were we ever lucky to get this one today as I just happened to look up at the right moment. Love that the sheep made it into the photo. Thanks for publishing all these trigs for us to find Geocaching Australia.

THis trig is on the way to Goulburn/Canberra from my place, so I have seen it quite often. It is great a sunset.
We spotted this trig from afar - sitting proud on its high point. Quickly grabbed the phone for a photo as we passed. The countryside is lovely and green at the moment.
Thanks for this cache Geocaching Australia.

MrT did this trig while in the area. Took photo and got info for log. From a different angle the rocks around the base of the triG are more obvious. TFTT

This is a beautiful old trig. Worthy of the 300mm zoom lens.

First trig for the day, and late in the day it was. Looking into the sun wasn't the best idea but the photo's were better than what I thought they'd be.....
Always good to find close to the road.

Headed out on a geocaching weekend through Bathurst and on to Orange with Fitzy_1965.
Spotted a Trig that wasn't on fitzy's list - seems he already has this one. Quick stop for my find.

A Goulburn run with rogerw3, a clear blue sky and a good road, Defiance was easily sight across the fenced paddock. It would have been nice to get up close and personal to the trig as it did appear to be well kept, maybe by the property owner. A well-form circular rock base with mast and vanes intact.

Found today with whitemushroom on our way to Goulburn for some train spotting. Lovely old cairn, in great condition.

Found coming back the long way from Wombeyan Caves. A bit far from the road but can still get a distinct shot. Nice looking base.

Mudgee trip 2013. After a wet night in my waterproof tent I headed out into the weather to find this one. It was a bit foggy, but you can just make out the trig in the image. Thanks

Found on our way from Katoomba to Canberra. A good excuse to stop and stretch the legs.
Heading back to Canberra when we spied this one and was surprised that it had not been identified before, so time to check it out.
Placed an email query to rogerw3 and he managed to track this one down and identify a new one in Bathurst as well (thanks Roger).
This one sits approx 200m inside private land - so no access is available but it is clearly visible from the roadside (no zoom required).
