By pure chance we droved the beach road to dead end and found ☺ the GUN BEACH.
Beautiful scenery, picturesque hiking trail on the edge to lonesome beach. Great!
Of course, we got the cache. Very nice cover, thanks for the cache, our first one on tour with Flohpudding. Greetings from Germany. Coin out.

This has got to be the oddest, (and creepiest) cache container I've ever run across. In fact it's so out there that I passed it over the first time out and the only thing that made me look at it again was noticing the feature that just didn't belong.
Definitely going on my favorites list.

Great hide! Not only did it scare me but my fiancé as well! He was too hesitant to grab it so he poked with a stick first. TFTC!
My last cache on the island while my daughter and I are visiting my two sons and a daughter-in-law. We were hanging out at The Beach Bar for the sunset and a few drinks just enjoying the time together. One of my sons and my daughter and I decided to try to locate the cache just after watching the beautiful sunset. We did it! Nice cache host, so glad my kids were with me to retrieve it! LOL My kids are friends with one of the bartenders and she hadn't heard of geocaching or knew this was there. We informed her and showed her pictures. Her husband is in the military and they are both very active and was going to look up geocaching to see if it was something that might be of interest to them. It was a great time caching on your island, a great time at the bar that evening, and a great time with my kids! Thanks Guam, I will return!! TFTC
Tftc!

Found with fransosick.
I believe things happen for a reason. Once we hit GZ, I decided to move the truck closer as a way to block us from the passing muggles. As I was driving back, I saw a huge smile on fransosick's face. I opened the door and asked if she had found it. . She nodded yes. I asked her how she found it so quickly (she was just sitting there). She said. . because it scared me. I looked in the direction she was pointing and I freaked out! I took a step back and watched as she got it, signed it and put it back. . There was no way I was goin' to get close.
So yes, things happen for a reason - I don't think I would've handled this one by myself. TFTC! & for the "FREAK OUT"

Grabbed this one pretty easily. Although the hint made me scared to look. But I grabbed my "gopher" grabber and went to GZ. This is the second time I've found one of those suckers! TFTC!
Out on a 100 Cache Dash with DDRAMS and Oki-dude today. Started at 7:45 am and hit cache number 102 at 6:15 pm. Cache is in good condition. Number 93 of 102.
We were gunning for 100 caches in one day. This was #93/102. (See http://coord.info/GC1FGFP)
Very cool spot.
THanks for bringing us here.

Found with DDRAMS and the very, very generous support of Blygoat.
We did all the work ourselves, but Blygoat did the driving and knew which caches to grab and which caches to pass. DDRAMS and I took him up on his amazing offer to assist any cachers who wished it to set the record of finding 100 caches in one day on Guam. Both DDRAMS and I had the same record, previously, of 42 caches in one day.
We certainly beat that record today!
Thanks for the Cache.

lots of muggles out and about. had a break in traffic so i was able to grab it. TFTC
Very cool cache. Kind of creepy sticking my hand in there. Had a coupe of cold drinks at this great nearby bar.
03/04/2012 I was looking for from eating lunch. Was not found. There was an old cannon.
Grabbed this one on the way to dinner. Wasnt real sure what I was looking for and it was a surprise when I found it. TFTC

Afternoon caching with the aid of a "go-everywhere" scooter.
This was a perfect cache, I wasn't sure what I was looking at,
but what a suprise and then I laughed like a little kid.

Sure enough...the cache is missing. Probably due to the new volleyball court they built on it. Relocated the cache not to far from the original location. Enjoy!!!

Searched for this one for quite a while, but came up empty-handed. There's some construction going on right in the area, so we weren't sure if the cache had survived the building of the new volleyball court. The cache may still be there, but it may be under quite a bit of earth.
I can't really take credit for this, but i will:) Deadmoney had to convince me that I had found it. Very funny. Most interesting one I've seen yet. TFTC! I have to say though, this one led us to have a great time at the pool. If not for this one we would not have hit that pool! Great day!!!

Searched for this one for a few min but don't think it os there any more. Gps put me on a construction sigh that was bare.
Last cache for the day on my unplanned Guam stopover. My GPS was dead and I still found it at the only obvious place at the end of the road. Really too easy.
Looked for this one last night and I was so close.Many muggles nearby with a bonfire and party favors.So i waited til today.Really the only place it could be.I should have felt around a little more last night.Just missed it.TFTC.pattayadave
Retrieved with no problems, overlooked it once before realizing there just was no other place. Two more muggle mobiles pulled up as we were trying to replace....had to wait for the perfect opportunity while they were dressing for scuba. Thanks for the fun hides.
There was a whole lot of scuba divers and barbecues going on in the area. It was our first time out here to this spot for Sherie and I, and the area was great. Found the cache quickly, and used the cachemobile as a means of cover. Took 4 marbles, and left four kiddie swag of I love guam stuff. Thanks for the cache, and a trip to a place Ive never been!
Some coworkers and I were out for some dives this morning, so we made our way here for dive #2. I didn't have my GPSr with me, but knew there was one here somewhere. And I found it exactly where I would have hid one. Thanks! TNLNSL -- Deadmoney

Gun Beach should be renamed to Ant Beach. As we came near the place where the cache was supposedly hidden we noted the ants, hundreds of them. The cache was sitting amidst a big ants nest. While we were staring at the nest and the cache, not knowing how to get it out, local surf dudes became curious and asked what we were doing. We explained and being a true hero, one of them picked up the cache and unscrewed the cap for us [^].
After signing we replaced the cache a bit away from the ants nest, only a few inches though. In the meantime some of the ants had bitten us on the legs

Found but it had an icky stick of gum in it with ants everywhere! Threw away the gum:P
This place used to be an old playground for some of us--lots and lots of memories It was a super easy find although we had to wait for the muggles staring right at us to leave. We will return some day to grab the other cache around the bend.
amenfirevega found this one, coordinates really help, but getting down there after the affects of a rainy week. not a bad time to go. tftc!
Could not figure out clue "Water the grass" until i found it. Laughed hard at that point!
The family came to Guam to visit me. Took them to Gun Beach to see the sights. TFTC TNLN
Is it just me, or is the road to Gun beach getting worse every day? This drive was made easier thanks to Blygoat's new truck.

Early morning find with my boy the Naokster strapped on for his first find (at 5 mo!). Gotta start 'em young... TFTC!
Great Find Last Night! Took a Newbie with me and we had a blast! Pretty sure he's hooked!!
First cache of the day after a week of no caching. Decided not to drive the cachemobile through the huge pond of water so I parked it while the rest of the group went ahead. After I waited a bit and noticed that they were kind of walking around in circles (probably following the arrows on their GPS's), I decided to cross over and help them out. Walked straight up to it as it was in typical Jimp59 fashion! Gotta love these hides! TFTC-SL TNLN
