2024 Map of Lake Nicol

About this map

The Black Warrior River dominates this landscape north of Tuscaloosa, where the modern course of the river creates significant water bodies like Holt Lake. Historically, this section of the river was defined by traditional crossings and early navigation points, evidenced by the presence of Hollis Ferry and Wallace Ferry. These landmarks represent a time before extensive bridging, when river transit was the primary means of north-south movement across the county.
