The river is primarily fed by snowmelt from the nearby Sangre de Cristo Mountains and is known to be affected by seasonal trends such as increased flow during the spring and decreased flow during the summer. There are no significant tributaries or dams along the river. The hydrology of the Rio Hondo is not particularly quirky or interesting, but it does play an important role in providing water for local agriculture and wildlife habitats. College students studying hydrology or environmental science may find this stream gauge useful for monitoring the water levels in this region.
