The creek is located in the San Luis Valley and has several tributaries, including Cucharas Creek and Trinchera Creek. There are no major dams located on the creek. The flow of the creek is highest in the spring and early summer due to snowmelt, while it is lowest in the fall and winter. However, the creek can experience flash floods during heavy rain events due to the region's arid climate. The Culebra Creek is also home to several species of fish, including the Rio Grande cutthroat trout, which is considered a species of concern by the US Fish and Wildlife Service.
