When I couldn't see this trigpoint on the Google Maps street view, despite know that it was supposed to be located less than 10 metres from the road, I got a bit worried. However, when I arrived at GZ in the GeoBuru this morning, there it was -- right beside the road! I would say it's only 5 metres or so from the sealed surface of Nelson Road.

It's actually located near the three-way intersection of Nelson Road, Mason Road and Old Pitt Town Road -- just behind an ordinary farm-style barbed wire fence. You can't quite touch it over the fence, but you can easily inspect it close-up and photograph it.

Compared to the dilapidated Mitchell Road Dural trig I visited yesterday (Tunks) it's in pretty good shape.

I'll upload my photos in the next couple of hours, which will show the Mason TS plate intact.

This is another high point in the Dural area landscape that's grown up with trees and bushes over the years. I assume this trig is on private property, which is no doubt what protected it from vandalism.

Anyhow, a good find and another historical lesson . . .

'Three Thumbs Up' for my pleasant surprise at finding the trig so easily, about 100 metres further up the road from where I was looking on Google Maps street view!
