Description

No actual trig structure left but cairn is still in place with a wooden pole with 'Mt Talbot' engraved on it.

Nearby is the remains of another structure with a ladder.  Possibly was a cubby house built by the occupants of the farm just down the road.

I headed over to WA to visit my sister and my new niece. Today we all decided to head out for a drive to York and cache along the way. We found 20GC and 3 GCA for the day. Not too bad with a newborn in tow.

So glad my sister has a 4wd as we weren't exactly prepared for the dirt roads. Loved the scenery as we made our way out to this lovely old trig.

Headed out for a day of exploring the bush around Mt Observation, we found this trig after having a picnic lunch nearby... We usually don't log these trig-points, but Firnsy has been giving GCA a bit of a plug lately & got us a little more motivated Clan MinotaurWinkVery Happy
