Geocache Description:

The highest geo-cache on Guam. At the top of Mt. Lamlam, a whooping 1320ft above sea level. Bring good hiking boots.

Good luck hiking out to the official peak. You will know you are close when you see the large pipe sticking up from the top. This is not a trival hike. Beware of mosquitoes and sharp rocks. Note that the GPS coordinates for this hike given in the "Best Tracks on Guam" book seem to be incorrect. If you try this please let me know if you agree with my coordinates.

It took several attempts to summit this monster. It was recently after a good sized typhoon and the trail was obliterated. Once I even hiked up the west face. I would have summited, had I not ended up at a false peak.
