The Mad River flows through the valley and is fed by several tributaries, including the Winooski and Dog Rivers. The river has several dams along its route, which can affect flow rates. During the summer months, the Mad River typically experiences lower flow rates, while during the spring thaw and heavy rain events, flow rates can increase significantly. The hydrology of the Mad River is also affected by its geology, as the river flows over a bedrock of glacial till and clay deposits. Despite its name, the Mad River is known for its peaceful beauty and is a popular spot for swimming, fishing, and kayaking.
