A partially infilled caño in the northwest delta plain showing partially infilled caño. An indigenous dwelling and associated
clearing are located on the levee. Infilling by vegetation is accelerated by construction of Volcán Dam and consequent loss of flood
discharge through the caño. Photograph taken March 1998.
