Deer Lick Creek Recreation Area, Tuscaloosa, Alabama

Wednesday we moved from Chewalla Lake Recreation Area in Holly Springs, Mississippi to the Deer Lick Creek Recreation Area in Tuscaloosa, Alabama.  This is a very nice Army Corps Of Engineers campground located on Holt Lake which was made by damming  the Black Warrior River.

Our Route

Our Campsite

The dam and lock just below the campground - you can see a tugboat and a barge in the lock on the far side

View from one of the hiking trails

The dam and lock in the distance viewed from the campground

View of one of the hiking trails along the shore - lots of interesting rock outcroppings & caves

Small dam on an adjacent lake near the campground

Seems like a stiff admittance fee

We didn't see anyplace to put the money so we just went in - Donna & Darby on the 50 ft. diving cliff
