The dam, constructed of earth with a buttress core type, stands at a height of 30 feet and has a storage capacity of 241 acre-feet. The dam overlooks Crooked Creek and has a surface area of 15 acres, offering a serene setting for outdoor activities.
Although the dam is not state-regulated and does not have a designated regulatory agency, it is classified as having a high hazard potential. Despite being in a remote location in Sligo, Missouri, the dam's condition has not been rated, and no official inspections or emergency action plans have been conducted. Despite these challenges, Indian Trail Fish Hatchery Lake Dam remains a popular destination for fishing, boating, and wildlife observation, highlighting the importance of maintaining and monitoring its structural integrity for the safety of visitors and the surrounding environment.
