Hello,

My uncle and I are climbing the high points of the US territories and
commonwealths. We are organizing a trip to Agrihan (Agrigan)
Mountain in the Commonwealth of the Northern Marianas Islands.
Agrihan is located some 200 nautical miles north of Saipan.
Consequently it is non-trivial to reach, although the summit should
be easy to obtain pending machete work. We are in the process of
receiving authorization from the mayor's office to land on Agrihan.
We have also selected a ship to take us there in the first week
of June (May 30 - June 4).

We are posting to see if others would be interested in joining this
adventure. Since the island requires renting a ship or helicopter and
requires an authorization to visit, this is a unique opportunity to
travel there and share the costs. If interested please reply to this
post or send an email to clintkaul at gmail dot com.

Thank you, Clint and Roger Kaul
