Until I made this map (in ArcScene) and then turned the site toward me, I hadn't realized how high up into the mountain the Murcielagos stream originates. The streams that cross Palenque come from perched table water springs that become full to overflowing due to added runoff when a big storm comes through. There are at least 51 of these type springs that flow out of the Palenque site.
