The river is primarily fed by precipitation and snowmelt, and it is influenced by several tributaries, including the Crawfish River and the Bark River. The river's flow is regulated by several dams, including the Rock River Dam located in downtown Fort Atkinson. The flow of the river is generally highest in the spring due to snowmelt and lower in the summer and fall. An interesting fact about the Rock River is that it was used as a major transportation route for steamboats in the 19th century.
