The river flows through several dams, including the Keyhole Dam, which contributes to the river's seasonal trends. During the spring, the river experiences higher flows due to snowmelt, while summer and fall see lower flows. The river is also prone to flash flooding during periods of heavy rain. One interesting fact about the river is that it is named after the French term for "beautiful fork," referring to the junction where it meets the Redwater River in South Dakota.
