The stream gauge monitors the water levels and provides data to water management agencies. The creek has several tributaries including Bear Butte Creek and Spearfish Creek, which can affect the flow. The hydrology of the creek is influenced by seasonal trends, with higher flows in the spring due to snowmelt and lower flows in the summer and fall. There are no significant dams on the creek. An interesting fact about Whitewood Creek is that it runs through the Black Hills, a region known for its gold mining history.
