Huntington is a private irrigation dam located in Sheridan, Wyoming, along the Dry Twin Creek. Built in 1906, this earth dam stands at a height of 22 feet and has a storage capacity of 146 acre-feet. Despite its age, the dam has a low hazard potential but is in poor condition as of the last inspection in September 2018. The spillway is uncontrolled, with a width of 12 feet, and the outlet gates are uncontrolled with a valve.

The dam is under state jurisdiction and regulated by the Wyoming State Engineer's Office, with permitting, inspection, and enforcement all conducted by the state. The primary purpose of Huntington Dam is irrigation, serving the surrounding area with a normal storage capacity of 104 acre-feet. With a moderate risk assessment score of 3, there are no emergency action plans prepared or inundation maps available, indicating a potential area of improvement for risk management measures. Despite its condition, Huntington Dam continues to play a crucial role in water resource management in the region.

Located just 19 miles from Wyola, MT, the Huntington Dam is an integral part of the local water infrastructure, providing essential irrigation to the surrounding area. While facing challenges in terms of its condition and risk assessment, the dam remains a key component in water resource management for the community. As water resource and climate enthusiasts, there is an opportunity to explore and advocate for improvements to ensure the safety and sustainability of Huntington Dam for years to come.
