The river is part of a larger watershed that includes several tributaries, including Thorn Creek, Halsted Creek, and Stony Creek. There are several dams located along the river, including the Burnham Dam and the West Pullman Dam. Seasonal trends in the river's flow are influenced by snowmelt in the spring and increased rainfall in the summer months. Interestingly, the Little Calumet River was the site of a major environmental disaster in 2005, when a train carrying hazardous materials derailed and spilled chemicals into the river, causing widespread contamination.
