(upbeat music)

00:25.386 --> 00:27.608
- [Woman] Our hike this week was to Mr. Lamlam,

00:27.608 --> 00:30.025
the tallest mountain on Guam.

00:30.156 --> 00:32.349
No matter what angle you look at this mountain from,

00:32.349 --> 00:35.883
you can't help but notice it's staggering natural beauty.

00:35.883 --> 00:38.055
The gang kicked things off at the foot of the mountain

00:38.055 --> 00:40.643
and most of us were unsure what to expect.

00:40.643 --> 00:42.849
What we saw for a good majority of the way up

00:42.849 --> 00:44.589
was nothing but grass.

00:44.589 --> 00:47.172
(upbeat music)

01:02.127 --> 01:03.741
Finally, after about half an hour,

01:03.741 --> 01:05.324
we reached the top.

01:05.687 --> 01:06.876
You know you're at the peak

01:06.876 --> 01:09.691
when you see the 14 wooden crosses.

01:09.691 --> 01:13.858
These crosses symbolize Guam's most predominant religion.

01:14.086 --> 01:16.669
(upbeat music)

01:20.320 --> 01:21.936
You're probably wondering

01:21.936 --> 01:23.962
what you need for a hike up this monster.

01:23.962 --> 01:27.143
You're definitely going to want to take water.

01:27.143 --> 01:28.992
Knowing how strong the sun is on this island,

01:28.992 --> 01:31.819
you'll want to take sunscreen along as well.

01:31.819 --> 01:34.667
You're also going to what some bug repellent.

01:34.667 --> 01:37.695
Good hiking shoes are also a recommendation.

01:37.695 --> 01:39.575
When you get to the top, there's no doubt

01:39.575 --> 01:42.696
you're going to want photos, so take a camera or a phone.

01:42.696 --> 01:45.196
In case of unforeseen mishaps,

01:45.371 --> 01:48.121
take some buddies along with you.

01:48.814 --> 01:51.122
(upbeat music)

01:51.122 --> 01:52.188
The hike isn't very difficult,

01:52.188 --> 01:53.872
so if you're able bodied don't miss out

01:53.872 --> 01:55.744
on the chance to see this view.

01:55.744 --> 01:58.327
