About Allie

The primary purpose of Allie is fire protection, stock, or small fish pond. The dam maintains a small impoundment used for fire suppression, livestock watering, or as a fish pond. The dam is owned by Bernie Bloomer (private). It impounds the Tr-east Fork Cherry Creek near Glasgow.

The dam stands 30 feet tall and stretches 150 feet across, and has a maximum storage capacity of 114 acre-feet. Completed in 1960, the structure is well into its service life at over 50 years old.

This dam has a significant hazard potential classification, meaning that a failure could cause significant economic damage — flooding roads, bridges, or property downstream — but is not expected to result in loss of life.
