If you are correct about this location, and I
think you may be, then the attached file may
show the mountain.

Alicad to the north is the most sizable town
I could find.

I believe this area is far north of Tayabas
province, so it is not in that province.

Jason,

[log in to unmask],121.4560688,10.93z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x0:0x0!8m2!3d16.05!4d121.5833333" class="" moz-do-not-send="true">16° 3' 0'' N ; 121° 34' 59.988'’ E - One of those completely empty spaces on Google Maps.

Since you said you’d covered Google pretty well, I started my search at Flickr. I know, but if it is a place people might go, hike on, etc. they can often be found on Flickr, particularly if it might be a local name rather than something official.

I didn’t find tourist pictures, but I found this drawing, https://www.flickr.com/photos/79472036@N07/13539780713/in/photolist-mCsV64 

From CHEEK, M., & JEBB, M. (2013). Nepenthes alzapan (Nepenthaceae), a new species from Luzon, Philippines. Phytotaxa, 100(1), 57. doi:10.11646/phytotaxa.100.1.6 

I see that Robert just found this same article and noted that the references point to 1925. Long story short, I found other specimens submitted by the same guy in 1925 (not Nepenthes) and finally struck gold at https://science.mnhn.fr/institution/mnhn/collection/p/item/p06780653?listIndex=334&listCount=377 

Hopefully this is helpful.
