Description
Mulley TS5517R
Official name of this Trig Station as per NSW Department of Lands is: Mulley.
Serial number is: TS5517R.
Last inspected on: November 7, 1992.
Elevation is: 731 meters.
This Trig is a concrete pillar with mast and vanes on top of the L.I.C. building.
A trig point (also known as a Trigonometric Station) typically consists of a black disc on top of four metal legs or concrete pillar, resembling a navigation beacon. It is also accompanied by a metal disc, which is located directly below the center point of the tripod or on top of the pillar itself.
Trig points are generally located at the top of hills or points of prominence in the landscape. Many provide unique views and challenges, with some being difficult to get to.
These points were regarded as valuable to surveyors, providing reference points for measuring distance and direction, and assisting in the creation of maps.
You are encouraged to leave a description of your journey in your log to help others in finding the trig point.
The original collection of trig points has been sourced from Geoscience Australia and may contain inaccuracies.

Spent half an hour wandering around trying to get a glimpse of this one to no avail. Even chatted to a staff person for a hint! Eventually spotted it as we drove out the driveway from the Trig next door. Doh! At least we found it!
Out for a drive with Black Bunny and decided to grab this as we passed by.
Thanks for the trig.

On a caching trip around Bathurst with WaywardWoman, I convinced her to take a side road so I could hunt for trigs. This one I finally found after approaching from a different direction

Got very distracted with outdoornut22 today while on our way back from a camping trip. So nice to have time to explore Bathurst.
Very glad that we’re here in a Sunday to find this one. The council building wasn’t busy at all and we were able to Peacefully do a lap of the building as grounds. Now I’m not 100% sure that I have the right photo with the right find on this building, but I did my best. Might have to get some advice from outdoornut22. Thanks team

Sophoutloud and I spent a few days camping with friends at Hill End and then because of the very wet weather that came in on Sunday night they decided to bail and head home early so we had the day to fill by ourselves so what better way to do that but explore a new area and bag some fresh Trig points around Hill End and Bathurst. I have to say all the Trigs we found today were in Amazing condition, I am not sure wether they get repaired here more often or are just vandalised less out here. Either way it was great to see. I am glad it was a Sunday when we arrived at this one, we ended up walking all the way around the building to find the 3 different trigs on the roof top, eventually we got ok photos that we were happy to log

You have to walk away from the trig in order to see the darn thing. Go to the car park on the Mt Panorama side and keep walking towards the mountain until you see it.

#GA2418 - 13:05; Day five, the last day of the summer sojourn in the Blue Mountains with the geohoney. After an enjoyable few days based in Leura, the time had come to pack up and head for home. It was also time to do one last quick caching run around the area while the other half finished getting ready for the trip. After collecting some caches in Leura and doing a sweep through Wentworth Falls, we were now packed up and headed for home the back way through Bathurst, Orange and Canowindra with a view to adding a few caches as well as a few dragonZones to the tally. We had now reached Bathurst and were headed off to have a look at the Mount Panorama circuit when we stopped off at this NSW Government building with not one, not two, but three trigs/CORS on the roof. Who could resist a stop for a three in one! After grabbing a snap of the two CORS at the rear of the building, we headed around to the carpark further to the south for a snap of this trig to wrap up the set here. TFTC Geocaching Australia

I got back further and further, until finally I could see that vane. I stood in my car doorway to gain some height, at the far side of the carpark.
What is that other thing up there? That looks like a trig concrete base. TFTC.

A Bathurst surrounds trig hunt day with master navigator rogerw3.
A good thing too that rogerw3 was there to guide a confuddled 'mushroom as the long day and a glaring sun gave false hopes. Taken for a walk and shown the error of his ways Mulley was eventually captured barely visible on the lands building skyline.

While in Bathurst for the Geocaching NSW Invasion Weekend Event I stopped by a few Trig Points, as I hadn't looked for these ones back in 2012 when last here. This one is a bit hard to differentiate from other items on the roof of the building, but made the best of it, by walking further away to see if there was a better shot.

This one is impossible to spot from near the building, but I got a view from the far end of the staff car park that is in the direction of Mt Panorama. Lucky I had the good camera with the zoom!
anyone else notice the trig on the tafe next door?
I got this shot from the road near the public school thinking it was this one. you can see it clearer from the staff parking at the lands council.

Found this one on a quick drive around Bathurst before hitting the road again for my holiday.
Sadly it was a Sunday and the place was shut so I couldn't get up there like the last person did.
2/6 to make Bathurst region Griffin-Gold again.

Found on a trip to Bathurst with GrimRaider. A council worker saw us circling the building and asked what we were doing. I told him about how I collect photos of trigs, which he thought was very weird but he offered to take me on to the roof to get a photo. You meet the nicest people geocaching! Thanks a lot Chris - you made my day

This one was hard to spot. I was about to give up (it was at least 45 degrees & my patience level wasn't high) then spotted it as I was about to drive away. So for me the easiest viewing point was near the edge of the car park.
Yep, Zhaoy and I had to walk to the end of the car park to peek the top of this one but it can be done! The other 2 are easier from the rear of the building.

Walked right around the building trying to get a shot of this. Could only see it from the far side of the big car park. Not that happy with the photo but it will do.

Mudgee trip 2013. With 3 trigs on one building they seem a bit greedy.

Took us a long time before we found a good position for our photographs, but we did it!
Who says these kinds of trigs are easy to log?

Another find with pjmpjm during our day's Trig and Geocache hunt in the Bathurst area.
This one proved a bit elusive as we were too close to the building, in the end it became visible from the West end of the car park and a welcome sight it was.
