17-Jul-10
Have driven by here many times, but missed it since it's tucked away. Lovely memorial. True heroes. Dropped off Dox Gold Pirate Treasure Coin we've had in our possession way too long. TFTC! 
 
10-Jul-10
Great place to rest, take pictures and do some beach-combing. SL 
 
Final cache of the day! Easiest one, too, as rhodesisland literally stepped on it. Had to use some muscle to open. Easy walk on the beach back to the pier. T-nothing L-donkey watch 
 
First find on a full day of caching with Team Rhodes. Admit that we weren't exactly stealthy, but figured if anyone asked what we were doing, we could say that we were examining the workmanship of the pier. Great place for a cache - right off the ferry. SL TNLN TFTC! 
 
There are a few possible spots that fit the hint, so this one was a bit tricky. SL TNLN 
 
While traipsing through the jungle to this cache, one of our group was stung by a boonie bee. Never seen a wall like this. TFTC! T-I Love Guam KC, L-red HW 
 
Favorite Cocos Cache! What a cutie! SL TNLN 
 
Perfect find for the shortest cacher in our group. T-finger light L-key 
 
Kids checked out the birds while the guys hunted for this one. Gorgeous plants and flowers offer an easy excuse for taking a "closer look" at this area. SL 
 
The obvious place for this cache is NOT where it is. So step back and think "where else would it be?" SL TNLN 
 
Low tide on this day, so easy to get to. Definitely worth the view. SL TFTC! 
 
Great scenery on the far side of Cocos. Got to witness some crazy birds wind-surfing. TN L:Pirate Booty TFTC 
 
09-Jul-10
Muggled! Container was there, but left open and filled with water. 
 
07-Jul-10
One of our favorite Guam views. Also a great place to watch the planes take off. 
 
01-Jul-10
Didn't see any chocolate, but did find the cache! Glad we had tweezers. SL 
 
First we wondered how far back we had to search. Then stepped back and took a good look. Very well guarded by a sizable spider. Nice stretch of beach with a different view of Fisheye. SL TNLN 
 
Think we touched every inch of this thing and searched every hole and crevice. No luck. 
 
Didn't go all the way to Pagat Cave, but had time for this one. SL TN L- Star Wars Toy 
 
Swarms and swarms of mosquitoes. No bug spray. Found the small container but were in a hurry to sign it, so didn't see that it lead to another, larger container. Just wanted the heck outta there. Did I mention the mosquitoes??? SL 
 
First find of the day in our '05 Honda CRV. SL, T: motorcyle, L: yellow truck 
 
Pretty sure we were in the right place, but just couldn't find it. Worth going up for the view, though. 
 
No Trespassing Signs threw us off at first. Very tricky hide. Requires a tall person or some climbing. SL 
 
Took a bit of poking in the weeds. Recommend bringing a stick. Cache had water inside and log was full. Cleaned it out and replaced log sheet. SL TNLN 
 
28-Jun-10
Beautiful day. Great view. SL 
 
20-Mar-10
Wouldn't have found this place on our own! Great views of the island! Parked down by the tower and hiked up to the cache. Hubby braved the sharp grass and spiders to find this one. Only one small cut for his trouble. 
 
Nice and easy find after Mt Santa Rosa 360. No hike, sword grass or spiders. Great little cache. 
 
Passed by earlier in the day and there was a game. Came back later and had the place to ourselves. Took a bit of looking but eventually noticed "something" was out of place. Our first micro! 
 
This one gave us a chance to practice our stealth mode. Think it still needs work. Luckily there weren't any creepy crawlies guarding the cache. 
 
Nice piece of Guam history. Chance to admire the trees while we were there. Colony of ants protecting the cache, but managed to get past their defenses. 
 
07-Mar-10
Great sight! Great hide! Clever hint!
T:tiny flashlight, L:toy car 
 
Fabulous historical site. Needed bug spray for this one. Used the hint, but still had to find the "right" rock. Found the cache, but have a few mosquito bites for our trouble. Log book was a bit wet. TNLN 
 
Took two visits to find this one. Challenge was searching through the vegetation w/o drawing the attention of passing cars. We're still beginners and working on our "sneakiness" level.
TNLNSL 
 
Quiet place but well-maintained. Small toad was guarding the cache. Log slip was full. TNLN 
 
Too many spiders for mama santos, so papa and the kids braved the search for this one. Huge palm frond fell on our car, so maybe we upset some spirits?!? T:retractable clip, L:toy car 
 
27-Feb-10
Our first find! Spotted by 8-year-old's sharp eyes!
Took: Dox Gold Pirate Treasure Geocoin (will find it a new home next weekend)
Left: old Ford key
