The stream is fed by precipitation, surface water runoff, and groundwater, with the primary constituents being dissolved solids, total dissolved solids, and chloride. The stream also receives water inflow from its tributaries, including Little Salt Creek, Oak Creek, and Middle Creek. Additionally, there are several small dams located along the creek, which can impact seasonal flow trends. During the summer months, the flow is typically low due to decreased precipitation, while winter and spring bring increased flow due to snowmelt and rainfall. One interesting fact about the Salt Creek is that it was once used as a trade route by Native American tribes, including the Pawnee and Otoe.
