Robinson is a privately owned dam located in Sheridan, Wyoming, along the Robinson Draw river or stream. Completed in 1956, this earth dam serves multiple purposes including fire protection, stock watering, and small fish pond management. With a maximum storage capacity of 104 acre-feet and a normal storage of 62 acre-feet, this structure plays a vital role in the local water resource management.

The dam stands at a height of 25 feet with a hydraulic height of 20 feet and a structural height of 28 feet. It spans a length of 305 feet and has a surface area of 7 acres. The spillway, classified as uncontrolled, has a width of 130 feet. Despite being classified as low hazard potential, Robinson received a fair condition assessment during its last inspection in August 2021, with a moderate risk assessment rating. The dam is not operated by the US Army Corps of Engineers and has no associated locks or outlet gates.

With a history dating back to the mid-20th century, Robinson continues to be a key component of the local water infrastructure, providing essential services for fire protection and agricultural needs. Its location in Powder River County, Wyoming, highlights its significance in the region's water resource management. Monitoring and maintenance efforts are in place to ensure the dam's continued functionality and safety for the surrounding community.
