The flow providers for the river are snowmelt and rainfall from the San Juan Mountains. The river has several potential tributaries, including the Animas River and the Los Pinos River. The Navajo Dam regulates the flow of the river, which can vary significantly throughout the year. Seasonal trends show increased flow during spring and early summer due to snowmelt, while flow decreases during late summer and fall. A quirky fact about the hydrology of the San Juan River is that it is the only river in the United States to flow through four different deserts.
