#GA1352 - 10:55; Doing the 'Tour de Wollondilly' with Sol de lune and andrewbt to collect a few trigs and other bits and pieces. This was the first trig stop and a three for one, with another nearby trig and what looks like a preliminary CORS set up. Luckily the gate was open today and we were able to drive right up to GZ. The pics were taken and we were soon on our way again. TFTC Geocaching Australia Very HappyClan Cerberus

Found this reservoir with another Trig nearby Picton TP. Great views up here. Never knew this existed, but then I've never really toured Picton much.

Two trigs for the effort of one. Cool Wink! I had about ten minutes to get up here and photograph both trigs before, according to the sign, the gates would be shut. Managed it in less time than that.

I was driving pass and noticed the gate was open. So I headed back and drove up here to the water tank.

got 2 trigs for the price of one. Parked at the bottom & walked up to the top. Sign on the gate said it shouldn't have been open as it was supposed to be Monday to Friday till 2pm I was there Saturday after 2.30pm so thought I better walk up as fast as I could. Tired by the time I got to the top took the photo & rushed back down. Gates still open so no worries. Thanks for the trig

I always had a suspicion that there was a Trig on top of this reservoir, today I had the chance to go and check it out.
Sure enough there it is as expected. Still in its undercoat grey.
