Fronds from Fan Palms are used for the thatch of palapas, while the long rigid stipes of Date Palm fronds are often used for the longitudinal
framework of palapas. There are a few good palapa builders in San Ignacio, but it is a dying profession. As evidenced in the latest Mulege and San
Ignacio fires, palapa structures are highly flammable. |
