Found on a trip to ACT with alnic39, teamMerlin and Splitty Miller JJCC. Al brought along his mountain bike which came in handy a few times but mainly for the return journey as he road down to get the car while we only had to walk to the nearest exut point to NSW side of the trail. Thanks for the trig a lot stranger to a NSW trig. Picture attached as requiredÂ

3rd of 5 of a trig run along the Northern border. This one involved a bit of a hill climb to reach... Views improving.
The view from here was good. It is Hill 121. In today's good light, I could read the marker.

I sloshed along the track, which was more creek in places, on this very wet day and was able to log five trigs. The views were not much though with the misty conditions.

Geocaching Australia (GCA) Cache Find Number 1133 - 11304 overall cache finds.
Found during a run up here along the CCT today with Sol de Lune and LuckyL10n. 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 (especialy 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 !
Today was a big day for us. We had planned on having a big numbers today (29 Feb) for nearly 2 years in order to smash our stats for the date. When the CCT trails started to appear around Canberra we new that this was the answer to what we wanted to do. So a plan was hatched and we rode along both this northern half and thern through the Goo for well over 100 GC cacahes for the day - Woo Hoo !
The trig was quickly 'found'. Piccie taken and posted.
Thanks Geocaching Australia !

Found with a bunch of Canberra cachers while picking up the CCT series. I think I have probably got my images a bit mixed up, so please do not rely on my photos for finding the cache. I know I bagged them all though. TFTT

#GA714 - 17:50; I was out on a stroll along the Centenary Trail and happened a cross a couple of recently published trigs along the way. This was the third of five along the eastern end of the track I did today. TFTC Geocaching Australia
