The primary source of flow is from the Green Mountain Reservoir, but there are also several tributaries that contribute to the overall water supply. The river experiences seasonal trends, with peak flows occurring in the late spring and early summer due to snowmelt. There are several dams along the river, including the Dillon Dam, which has been the subject of controversy due to concerns about potential failure. Despite this, the Blue River remains a popular destination for recreational activities such as fishing and rafting.
