The creek is joined by several tributaries, including Cuchara River and Bear Creek, which contribute to its flow. During the summer months, flows tend to be low due to decreased snowmelt and rainfall, while winter flows are higher due to increased snowmelt. Despite its relatively small size, Trinchera Creek is a popular location for fly fishing enthusiasts due to its abundance of brown and rainbow trout.
