The flow of the gauge is provided by the Gila River, which is a tributary to the Colorado River. The Gila River is fed by several smaller tributaries, including the San Pedro and Santa Cruz Rivers. The gauge shows seasonal trends, with peak flows typically occurring during the summer months due to monsoon rains. The hydrology of the area is impacted by multiple dams, including the Painted Rock Dam and the Gila Bend Dam. Interestingly, the Gila River was named after the Gila monster, a venomous lizard found in the region.
