Wolf Mountain in Routt County, Colorado, is a privately owned earth dam completed in 1988 primarily for fish and wildlife pond purposes. With a structural height of 47 feet and a length of 310 feet, the dam has a storage capacity of 162 acre-feet and serves multiple functions including fire protection, irrigation, and stock watering. The dam is located on Wolf Creek, with a drainage area of 1 square mile and a maximum discharge capacity of 600 cubic feet per second.

Despite being classified as having low hazard potential and satisfactory condition, Wolf Mountain Dam is regulated by the Colorado Department of Water Resources, with state permitting, inspection, and enforcement in place. The dam features an uncontrolled spillway with a width of 18 feet and has undergone its last inspection in 2014. The risk assessment for the dam is moderate, indicating the need for ongoing monitoring and potential risk management measures to ensure its continued safety and functionality for the surrounding environment and communities.
