Dead Rabbit is a privately owned dam located in Johnson, Wyoming, along the Bullet Draw river. Built in 2006 by designer Hugh Lowham, this earth dam stands at a height of 33 feet and serves primarily for irrigation purposes, with a storage capacity of 99 acre-feet. The dam has a low hazard potential and is in fair condition, last inspected in September 2016.

With a spillway width of 60 feet and a maximum discharge capacity of 907 cubic feet per second, Dead Rabbit ensures controlled water release during high flow events. The dam's structural design includes stone core types and rock and soil foundations, providing stability and durability. Despite its moderate risk assessment rating, the dam has not been significantly modified since its completion, maintaining its original purpose of providing water resources for irrigation and other uses in the area.

This earth dam in Wyoming's picturesque landscape plays a crucial role in water management for agriculture and fire protection in the region. With regulated state jurisdiction, regular inspections, and enforcement by the State Engineer's Office, Dead Rabbit stands as a testament to responsible water resource management and climate resilience in the face of changing environmental conditions.
