The primary tributaries include the Fire Mountain Canal and Surface Creek Ditch, which both contribute to irrigation demands. There are no major dams on the main stem of the creek. Seasonal trends show that spring snowmelt and summer rainfall can cause significant increases in flow, while fall and winter months experience lower flows. The hydrology of the creek is interesting because of the unique geology of the area, which includes shale formations that can affect groundwater recharge and surface runoff. Overall, the Surface Creek at Cedaredge stream gauge provides valuable information on water resources in this region.
