Yorkin River

Yorkin River is a river of Costa Rica and Panama which marks part of their border. Its confluence with the Telire River creates the Sixaola.^[1]

Although the Yorkin has changed its course due to flooding, the border has not changed. This has led to confusion among the local Bribri people, who have illegally cultivated bananas on the wrong side of the border.^[2]
