The creek is primarily fed by rainwater and snowmelt, and is influenced by surrounding tributaries such as Dry Creek and Turkey Creek. The creek experiences seasonal flow fluctuations, with high flows in the spring due to snowmelt and rain, and low flows in the summer due to decreased precipitation. The creek is also impacted by the presence of several small dams, which can affect the flow and water quality. Interestingly, the creek is named after the town of Fountain Heights, which was named for a natural spring that is now submerged in the nearby Percy Priest Lake.
