Ague Cove boonie stomp


Today was our first real Guam adventure and first boonie stomp (thats what they call jungle hiking in Guam). Our adventure took us to Ague Cove with the Hwang family. Ague cove is located on the northwest coast just south of Anderson Air Force Base and is considered moderate in difficulty. The combination of intermittent heavy rain with steep muddy trails made for some slippery and challenging conditions particularly with the kids. The upside to the gloomy and rainy conditions were cooler outside temperatures with a nice breeze. Sienna did an awesome job walking down the trail while Nathaniel enjoyed being carried in the backpack by daddy and taking in the scenery. At the cove, we had lunch and enjoyed the scenery. Later, we took turns going out snorkeling where we saw coral reefs varying in color from deep purple to gold and a host of different reef fish. Overall, it was a great trip but man are my legs jello right now.
