Sigua Falls

Sigua Falls is apparently one of the hardest hikes on Guam, but it was amazing and doable for the group that went. We started out as a big group and ended up coming back in small groups by the time everyone climbed their way out and made their way back.


I haven't had this much fun on a hike in a long time. Sarah, one of our new teachers, and I recently made friends with a group of people from Bayview church from a previous hike to Tarzan Falls. They graciously agreed to lead the Sigua hike on Memorial Day, which was amazing.

After starting off at 7:30 a.m., we took about an hour, give or take, to make it to the waterfall. We all had a chance to jump off the falls a few times and swim around. After two near death experiences, the hot sun, and a bunch of other people coming down into the area, we seemed to have enough excitement for the afternoon and made our way back up. The hike back was incredible although we were exhausted. We still made it, and all had enough energy to play games at the house later on in the evening.

I'm so thankful for new, cool friends, especially as I was thinking that the summer wouldn't be as productive or adventerous as the rest of the year was. It turns out that it's even better.
