The river's flow is affected by several tributaries, including the Skykomish River and Spada Lake, which is held back by a dam. Seasonal trends show the most flow in the spring and early summer due to snowmelt, while lower flows occur in the fall and winter. The Sultan River is interesting for its role in providing hydroelectric power to the region, as well as its significance to the Tulalip Tribes, who historically relied on the river for fishing and gathering resources.
