Trail–Xecotz, Guatemala

There are no roads to Xecotz–just a long trek up and down the mountains of the Central Highlands. Xecotz was newly reconstituted after the military abandoned it during the civil war. They had forced the people move to refugee camps where they could be more closely watched in the 1980’s. These were taken in 1990, after they had moved back.
