Drove by today to grab this CORS Trig. Always drive past and think how am I going to photo this one. So today it was drive up and take a photo to log.
Great one for a wet day. No need to leave the protection of the car. TFTC.

Another CORs grabbed as I made my way around the area. No-one in the area so no problems grabbing the required photo.

Catching up with some logs I missed while on a caching trip in the Northwest with GooseandEgg. Sorry I put them off and then lost my fieldnotes.
Thanks for another great cache.
Thanks for another great cache.
On our way out of town to find a few puzzle caches we made the quick detour to snap a photo here. I knew the building well as we've had a meeting here and also have other clients on the same road. We had to wait for a truck to exit the driveway, as it was between us and the CORS. Once he had driven off we took the required photos and then drove offourselves. We still had quite a bit to do.

A quick stop on the way to Ulverstone to grab the required photo here. A high security area so made sure we quickly out of there. Thanks.
Out and about for the Summer Scavenger Series 2016/17 and snapped this one whilst in the area

Stopped to grab a photo on our way through to Launceston to visit family. We've done couple of CORS on the mainland but this is our first home state one
We were familiar with CORS in New South wales where they have been listed as Trig Points for some time. However until this cache was published, we were not aware that CORS existed throughout the country. The CORS in Ulverstone is located at Botanic Resources, a company which grows and extracts pyrethrum. It is rather difficult to see the CORD antenna on the roof of the building as it is small and sits between other communications antenna and near solar cells. However, it can be seen. A photo has been added. Thanks for the cache.
