The river is fed by multiple tributaries, including the Gasconade and the Maries rivers, and there are several dams along its path. Seasonal trends show a peak in flow during spring due to snowmelt and rainfall, while low flow occurs during summer and fall. The river is known for its diverse fish population, including the endangered pallid sturgeon. Interestingly, it is also home to an unusual phenomenon known as "Osage River fog," where cold river water meets warm air, creating a fog that hovers over the river's surface.
