Illinois City, IL
Lock & Dam 16 is a great place to view wildlife on the river such as Bald Eagles in the winter and Double-crested Cormorants, White Pelicans, ducks, and Great-blue Herons in the summer. It’s also a wonderful way to get close to the action of a towboat and its barges locking through.
Lock & Dam 16 is located across the Mississippi River from Muscatine, IA at 33109 102 Ave. West, Illinois City, IL 61259.
