It is primarily fed by snowmelt from the surrounding mountains and has a highly variable flow rate. There are no major dams along the creek, but several smaller ones have been built to divert water for cattle and farming. During the summer months, the flow rate typically decreases due to decreased snowmelt and increased evaporation. The creek is also a popular destination for white-water rafting, with Class III and IV rapids. Interestingly, the creek is known for its high levels of dissolved minerals, which gives the water a unique turquoise color.
