Bonneville is a privately owned earth dam located in Thermopolis, Wyoming, along the Gulch Tributary of Badwater Creek. Built in 1914, this structure stands at a height of 40 feet and has a hydraulic height of 35 feet, with a maximum storage capacity of 681 acre-feet. The dam serves primarily for purposes other than flood control or water supply, with a low hazard potential and fair condition assessment.

Managed by the Sacramento District of the US Army Corps of Engineers, Bonneville features an uncontrolled spillway and one outlet gate. The dam's inspection frequency is every 5 years, with the last assessment conducted in July 2018. Despite moderate risk assessment, this structure has not undergone extensive modifications in recent years and is considered to meet safety guidelines. Water resource and climate enthusiasts may find the history and specifications of Bonneville intriguing, as it continues to play a role in managing water resources in the region.
