The river is primarily fed by snowmelt and rain, and its flow is largely dependent on seasonal trends. The Klickitat River is known for its excellent fishing opportunities, with its tributaries providing additional habitats for trout and steelhead. The river is also home to several dams, including the Goldendale Dam and the Lyle Falls Dam, which have had significant impacts on the river's hydrology. Interestingly, the Klickitat River was once home to a thriving population of salmon, which have since been largely displaced by non-native species such as bass and carp.
