Logging a few finds in Oberon on the drive between campsites. This CORS was a relatively easy finding being right next to some of the places we were visiting for our weekly top up.

Found it

Travelled home with Smittengranny today and photographed this trig on the way. Thanks.

This is the second of three trigs that we photographed on the way home today. Thanks for publishing all these trigs for us to find Geocaching Australia.

I guess I should log this cache as it is on the roof of the building I work in. The communications box associated with it sits inside my server room and I occasionally have to reboot a piece of kit of behalf of Spatial Services.

On a long day trip west today – this was the 1st stop for a trig / cache in the early morning – always busy here even at this time of the morning – thanks again

Oberon provided a unique caching experience for us late this afternoon. It is the first time that we have been caching while it has been snowing. Ther snow was fine but the very strong winds made it extremely cold. Whilst in Oberon we located the Oberon CORS. The photos we took have been added to the Gallery. Thanks for the cache.

This is my first GCA CORS Trigpoint cache. I was not sure what it should look like. On the other side of the building are some communications dishes which I thought could be it, so I took photos of both. After looking at other logs, I now know which one it was.

#GA2369 - 16:25; Day two of the summer sojourn in the Blue Mountains with the geohoney and today a trip to Jenolan Caves was the order of business. Made our way down to the caves from Leura after breakfast in Katoomba on the way through. I was surprised at the speed limits as we made our way along the Great Western Highway, but they were certainly appropriate given the nature of the roads. Ended up behind a tourist on the Jenolan Caves Road, which was quite interesting when they overtook two cars stopped at a traffic control stop before they saw the traffic controller Anyway, we managed to pass safely before the steep descent started After an interesting tour of the Orient Cave, we headed towards Oberon, stopped by the dam to grab the three trigs there, along with an engineering marker. Then headed into town for the CORS TFTT Geocaching Australia

Once we got far enough away we could see it.

Finally, after many visits over the last 2 years, I remembered to look for this thing and take a photo.

Passing through Oberon I saw this CORS listed so stopped to find it. Soon found on the side of the council building in the main street. Managed to find a suitable spot for a photo.

In Oberon and stopped to grab this one as I went past. Another CORs on another Council Building which is always a giveaway.

Headed out on a geocaching weekend through Bathurst and on to Orange with Fitzy_1965.

We stopped in the side road for a quick find. I like these CORS !

Geocaching Australia (GCA) Cache Find Number 1319. Found during a run up to the Oberon, Bathurst and Orange regions with minniek.

A weekend run up through the Oberon, Bathurst and Orange regions to tackle a number of puzzle series, lots of trads, plus a number of trigs as well. Although there were a number of DNFs, in all the caches were nicely placed with good coords. Glorious weather certainly added to a very fun weekend. An early departure with a few quick stops along the way saw us soon at Oberon to start the campaign in ernest. This one was very conveniently in a side street near a nice cafe where i scored a coffee to keep me going for a while longer. Once at the CORS of course it was a quick stop for the required photos, admired the CORS, then it was off to the Dam to the next one / couple. Photo of the CORS attached.

Another nice CORS to add to the collection. Really enjoy finding these trigs in all sorts of odd places, especially the new CORS type which seem to be popping up in every country town plus the big cities.

TFTC !!

A lunchtime drive into the maybe private busy carpark for a quick photo. Easy to spot when you have seen a few before.

Look what I found in Oberon today.

Spotted the trig symbol on the car GPS while in Oberon for some GC caches. So we went looking, couldn't see a trig, then realised it was probably a CORS. Looked up & spotted it.

A quick duck down the lane for an easy find.

Grabbed on way

Mudgee trip 2013. I like that there is new technology for surveying, but they are not as much fun as normal trigs. Thanks

Last find of the day before it gets dark! Caching in the dark is fine, but finding Trigs is very hard!

Made a quick find due to the detailed directions in a previous log. A curious elderly muggle watched us from the end of the alley but we took the required photos and departed without being challenged.

One of 22 finds today, as rogerw3 and I travelled throughout the Oberon area, chasing both trigs and ordinary GC caches.

Can't say this was a difficult one, but if you don't know what you're looking for, then the CORS trigs are misleading.

A quick walk up an Oberon alley-way solved the mystery!

Trig number #3 with pjmpjm on our Oberon caching day.
A bit tricky to locate this one as it is not visible from the main street.
Find the Council building then walk down the side alley on the right and half way down the Trig is behind you at the top of the building.
