Kicken Draw, located in Campbell, Wyoming, is a privately owned earth dam with a height of 32 feet and a hydraulic height of 22 feet. Constructed in 1984 by designer William C. Maehl, this dam serves a variety of purposes and has a storage capacity of 134 acre-feet. The dam spans 500 feet in length and covers a surface area of 13.19 acres, with a drainage area of 1.6 square miles.

Despite its fair condition assessment and low hazard potential, Kicken Draw poses a high risk due to its location and potential impact on the surrounding area. The dam does not have a spillway and is equipped with uncontrolled outlet gates. Regular inspections are conducted every 5 years to ensure the structural integrity and safety of the dam. The last inspection was carried out in September 2021.

Managed by the State Engineer's Office in Wyoming, Kicken Draw is a crucial water resource in the region. With Liz Cheney representing the Congressional District, the dam plays a significant role in water management and climate adaptation efforts in the area. Enthusiasts interested in water resources and climate change will find Kicken Draw to be a fascinating case study of private ownership and regulatory oversight in dam infrastructure.
