Lone Wolf is a Federal-owned Earth dam located in Itasca, Minnesota, with a primary purpose of serving as a Fish and Wildlife Pond. Built in 1991, this dam stands at a height of 20 feet and has a storage capacity of 427 acre-feet. It is situated on the TR-RICE RIVER and is maintained by the USDA Forest Service.
With a low hazard potential and a moderate risk assessment rating, Lone Wolf underwent structural modifications in 1999 to ensure its continued safety and functionality. The dam has a drainage area of 3 square miles and a maximum discharge capacity of 400 cubic feet per second. Despite being uncontrolled, the dam's spillway type is designed to handle any excess water flow.
Although not currently rated for its condition, Lone Wolf is inspected every 10 years, with the last assessment conducted in August 2013. With its strategic location and crucial role in supporting local wildlife, Lone Wolf serves as a vital water resource within the St. Paul District, making it a fascinating subject for water resource and climate enthusiasts to explore and appreciate.
