The river is fed by multiple tributaries and contains a variety of aquatic species including brook trout, brown trout, and smallmouth bass. There are several dams along the river, including the Mio Dam, which was built in the early 1900s and provides hydroelectric power. Seasonal trends include higher flows in the spring due to snowmelt and rain, and lower flows in the summer and fall. Interesting facts include the Au Sable River being a designated National Wild and Scenic River, and that it was featured in Ernest Hemingway’s novel, The Big Two-Hearted River.
