The river is fed by snowmelt and rainfall, with potential tributaries including the San Francisco River and Eagle Creek. The water flow varies seasonally, with peak flows in the spring and summer and lower flows in the winter. The hydrology of the Gila River is influenced by the construction of dams, such as the Coolidge Dam and San Carlos Dam, which regulate water flow and provide irrigation to surrounding agricultural areas. A quirky fact about the Gila River is that it is home to a number of endemic species, including the Gila monster, which is the largest venomous lizard in North America.
