It is primarily used by the USGS to provide data to a range of constituents such as water management agencies, researchers, and policy-makers. The Willow Creek stream gauge is not directly affected by any specific tributaries or dams, but seasonal trends indicate spring snowmelt and summer rainstorms cause peak flows. Interestingly, the hydrology of the Willow Creek watershed is unique due to its location on the eastern edge of the Rocky Mountains. Additionally, Willow Creek is home to abundant fish and wildlife, including Montana's state fish, the westslope cutthroat trout.
