1701: Mexico-Guatemala Border

A Mam Mayan family from the highland town of Todos Santos Cuchumatan, Guatemala, pays for the raft service after crossing the Suchiate River from Tecún Uman, Guatemala, into Ciudad Hidalgo, México. Dozens of paddlers offer their services for US $1.25 each way as innumerable quantities of people and merchandise cross through an unregulated border crossing between the two countries each day.
