Leslie No. 2 is a privately-owned dam located in Johnson, Wyoming, along the Leslie Draw river or stream. Constructed in 1991, this earth dam serves multiple purposes, including fire protection, stock, and small fish pond. With a height of 24 feet and a length of 550 feet, the dam has a maximum storage capacity of 51 acre-feet and a normal storage of 32 acre-feet. Its low hazard potential and fair condition assessment make it a crucial structure for water resource management in the area.

The dam's primary designer, JOHN A. LAMBERT, ensured that it meets all state regulations and undergoes regular inspections and enforcement. Despite its uncontrolled spillway type, the dam has a maximum discharge capacity of 1035 cubic feet per second, mitigating potential flooding risks. Additionally, its proximity to the city of SUSSEX and the congressional representation by Liz Cheney (R) highlights its importance for local water supply and fire protection needs.

With a moderate risk assessment rating and a history of being well-maintained, Leslie No. 2 stands as a vital infrastructure for water resource and climate enthusiasts in the region. Its strategic location, storage capacity, and structural integrity make it a valuable asset for ensuring water security and environmental sustainability in Johnson, Wyoming.
