The reservoir is fed by the Green River and is a primary water source for the Uintah Basin. The hydrology of the reservoir relies heavily on snowpack and surface flow from the surrounding mountains. The snowpack is typically heaviest from January through March, and the surface flow is highest during spring runoff from April through July. The reservoir provides water for agricultural uses and also serves as a popular recreation area for camping, boating, and fishing. The reservoir is stocked with rainbow trout, and other fish species found in the reservoir include yellow perch and smallmouth bass. The area around the reservoir also offers hiking trails and rock climbing opportunities.
