The Big Black River carves a complex, winding path through the borderlands of Warren and Claiborne counties, defining a landscape dominated by riparian features and swampy bottomlands. This survey illustrates a hydraulic environment where abandoned river channels have formed a series of oxbow lakes and sloughs, including West Carter Lake, Regan Lake, and Congo Lake. The presence of Regan Island and the expansive Campbell Swamp suggests a territory historically shaped by seasonal flooding and the shifting course of the river.
