The river is primarily fed by rainwater and contributes to the larger Spartanburg watershed. There are no significant tributaries or dams affecting this section of the river. Seasonal trends show higher flow levels during the wetter months of the year. Interestingly, there is a history of gold mining in the area dating back to the early 1800s, which may have impacted the river's hydrology. Today, the Pacolet River is a popular spot for fishing and kayaking.
