The river's flow is primarily driven by precipitation and snowmelt, leading to seasonal fluctuations in flow rates. The river is also influenced by nearby dams, including the Cougar Dam and the Blue River Reservoir. Interesting facts about the hydrology of the Blue River include its reputation as a popular fishing destination for trout, and its designation as a protected Wild and Scenic River.
