Passing through with geovan in tow, we stopped and snapped the required pic, which has been added to the gallery Out for a drive with Just a cacher and decided to drop in and grab this as we passed by.
A quick find here today.
Thanks for the trig.

Stayed the night here and nearby were two GA caches. This was one of them. TFTC
Last day of the long weekend road trip to the far south coast. Stayed overnight in Beta and worked my way north from there. Again lots of caches and mostly of good quality, thanks to all for putting them out there!

Easy to spot. Then after photographing it, it was off to the nearby supermarket to buy dinner. TFTC.

We arrived in Bega late this afternoon and the Bega CORS was the second place we visited. Two photos have been added to the Gallery: the first shows Mrs y'stassie in front of the Bega Valley Shire Offices with the CORS antenna on the roof in the background; the second is a closer view of the CORS antenna. Thanks for the cache.
Took my happy snap whilst visiting Bega with friends on a Sunday drive.

Spotted this one quickly as we approached. Parked in the supermarket car park to get the required snap. Thanks.
Geocaching Australia (GCA) Cache Find Number 1190 - 12011 overall cache finds.
Found while on a caching run with mtrax and LuckyL10n doing the Saphire Surprise Tour (SST) and Brickfield Hill (BFH) series down the coast. While I mainly looked for GC caches, when an easy GCA cache comes along we go for that as well. Trigs are particularly nice to track down and find. I was very happy when they became part of the GCA cache family. Its especially satisfying if you have made a big climb up for one ! I have also now joined dragonZone in Clan Cerberus, so there are more reasons to find those GCA caches. Its interesting to find the many different types of trigs. From the traditional metal legs and vanes, to the concrete base with vanes, to the ones on top of water tanks (especially the red ones !), as well the new CORS type. When you look on a GCA map and see all those hundreds and hundreds of blue 'Z's it shows just how many there are out there. Shame so many are on private property and cannot be accessed at all. So as far as I'm concerned every trig that can be found and photographed is a real bonus !
The trig was quickly 'found'. Piccie taken and posted. Another nice CORS grabbed.
Thanks Geocaching Australia !

#GA946 - 15:35; Dropped by this CORS while on a caching tour de force with fitzy_65 and mtrax doing the Sapphire Surprise Tour trail. We made hard work of what should have been an easy drive by when we overshot the runway and had to do a lap of the block before taking the right turn off. TFTT Geocaching Australia

Doing the sst series and this was on our route, had to do a blockie to get entrance correctly
A quick find in the middle of town, harder to find a parking place so we could take the photo! TFTC
Found with GrimRaider on the way home from the coast. Love this town - TFTC

Apart from getting a good angle to get an image of this one, it was a nice simple drive by. Thanks
