The primary constituents of the flow are snowmelt and groundwater. The river is relatively free-flowing within its watershed, with no major dams or diversions. During the summer months, flows can be low due to decreased snowmelt and increased water usage for agriculture. In the fall and winter, flows increase due to precipitation. The hydrology of the Wood River is interesting because it is home to several species of fish, including the endangered Lost River and shortnose suckers, which are dependent on the river's unique hydrology for their survival.
