Description
A Trig Point is a virtual cache which requires a cacher to locate the Trigonometric Station at GZ and photograph it.
This trig point (also known as a Trigonometric Station) is not far off the road to Nerriga. To log a find on the Geocaching Australia website, you will need to include a picture of the trig point, along with your GPS receiver and (preferably) yourself.
Official name of this Trig Station as per NSW Department of Lands is:
Boolijah
Serial number is: TS5613.
Last Inspected on: unknown.
Elevation is: 296 metres.
Safest access off this busy road is park directly opposite the trig. There is a gravel track to a broad, cleared area. You may have to walk south a 100 metres along the road then walk back along the top. When you come to a small clearing you'll have better access to the trig.
Logs
Having spent hours every day since mid March sitting at my computer logging Locationless caches, today I dcided to spend hours sitting in my car searching out trigs and maybe a virtual. I left Captains Flat earlyish and travelled via Braidwood, Nerrigah and down to the coast near Georges Basin. From there I headed south grabbing trigs along the way to Bateman's Bay and back up the Clyde Mountain to Home. Thanks for all the trigs Geocaching Australia. I will add notes that are pertinent to each trig if they stand out in my mind. I will have to add photos later to all logs as the photos are on my phone.
Amazing how different a place can be depending on when they are visited. Someone wrote their log how hard it was to find and get to because of all the scrub. After the bushfires this was easy to locate at just a short distance from an easy off road parking spot across the road. TFTT

I had attempted to find this trig many years ago before published, however thick scrub stopped me. Today was easy enough, although this is a hard one to see until you are almost on top of it... Thanks for another trig
#GA3209 - 13:10; On the way home from a convention in Bomaderry and decided to stop off to grab this trig on the way home again. Parked beside the road and made the short walk to GZ where the trig was quickly spotted and snaps taken. TFTT Geocaching Australia

Another trig down along the road to Neriga. Very wet today, but trigs were easy to find and very clear marked!

Out for a drive along the Braidwood Road this morning to grab some Trig points and this was my third one for the morning. Parked opposite its location and the crossed the road up the bank and into the scrub to find it. TFTC.
A quick stop on my way to Nowra and after a sharp climb, I was poking at this one.

Geocaching Australia (GCA) Cache Find Number 1200 - 12275 overall cache finds.
Found while on a caching run with specimenX down the coast - a really fun trip with lots of cache finds. 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.
Thanks Geocaching Australia !

On the way home from a Jervis Bay dive trip I saw two trigs that are pretty close to the main road. There was a bit of a climb up to this one, almost a surprise for a roadside trig. Thanks.

I tried some years ago to locate this trig using a topo map but thick scrub barred my way. A fire last year has thinned the scrub but still hard to see until a few metres away. There are faint glimpses of the sea if you stand on a rock beside the trig.
