New Ridge Morwell, Victoria, Australia
By LouiseAnn on 09-Apr-16. Waypoint TP7304

very over grown.

Not much left at this site. I parked at the CFMEU and walked around. There is a huge gap in the gate, so I just ducked thru. I forgot what I was looking for and walked past the site. Ent looking for the engineering markers, but did not find them. Came back to the site for the trig. Like I said, there is not much left.

Never ventured up to this spot before but eventually spotted the red bit, well its seen better days, its eerily quiet here but good to walk around checking everything. TFTTC

quick find while out with goose and egg and Toolman thanks for the trig

it's not so big anymore! Found the top of it not too far away.

With SSRAT AND GOOSE, shame to see trig has been pulled down BUT we found the site AND the trig masthead laying 30 mates away.

#GA2154 - 08:20; Day two of a caching run through eastern Victoria with Sol de lune to build on our July trip further to the west. After a night in Traralgon, today sees us head through the Latrobe Valley, Baw Baw, South Gippsland and on to the Bass Coast before heading north through Cardinia, Yarra Ranges into Murrundindi and an overnight in Alexandra. We had now reached Morwell and made our way to the site of this trig. The plug is still in residence, but sadly the trig itself is no more. I'm not sure why it would have been removed? Anyway, grabbed some snaps before heading over to the museum, but it was closed, so it was back to the geomobile and on the road again. TFTT Geocaching Australia

Seems the trig itself is gone, but the plug point is still there, as well as the four footings of the trigs legs. Required photo grabbed. Pity the nearby museum is only open on Fri, Sat & Sun. Would have been interesting to have a look inside.

This was the first stop for the day, trig point and nearby cache. The weather was threatening to break up so we took a quick photo and headed to search for the cache. The red=head beacon has been removed leaving the bases of the four supports and the survey marker point. Twos photo are attached

I cannot believe my luck! The larger spiderling and I had just been at a swimming lesson in Morwell and detoured here on the way home to nab these two GA caches. Right as I pulled up, there was activity at gz - the red trig point was in the process of being dismantled!!! I explained my mission to the fellow and he stopped his business just long enough for me to snap a picture. I'm led to believe four posts will be remaining here, however the actual trig point itself will be no longer available for photographs. TFTC and for my first trig point! The view from here back towards Traralgon is spectacular.

Found at 11.05am whilst visiting the area.

First time I've seen a red trig.

It wasn't a very pleasant night, but I wanted to get another trig before getting a Dashpoint, and then snoozing before daybreak.
Yes, it is RED, found @ 0210, with a lot of drifting drizzle making it hard to get a photo with the flash.
Another metal pipe quadrapod, but with semi-circular vanes painted red, while the legs could do with a sand blasting another coat of paint.
