Steady flow spring, located on 168 east about 7 miles away from Big Pine. The spring was on the left-hand shoulder of the road. The sign about the area's history can be found at the spot where you can pull off the road. The spring was formed from a small hole in a rock without any nearby creeks. A steep uphill drive on a curvy roadway that is not maintained in winter may be necessary.
I spoke to a local about the spring, and he confirmed that he would certainly drink it. I recommend that you test the water, because I know there was mining in the area many years back.
Any additional information would greatly be appreciated.

This is a sacred spring that is highly valued by sierra nevada residents, outdoor enthusiasts, and skilled rock climbers on their way to the next climbing spot. It is important to respect it. If you see trash, please pick it up. As you drive towards the yosemite entry from Lee Vining, keep your eyes on your right. You'll eventually see a forest of aspens. The contrast between the forest and the mountain slopes full of pinyon pine and sage will make it very apparent. Just across the HWY, turn right on a dirt track. Drive up the hill approximately 30 yards and pass through an open gate. The spring will be to your left. You have gone too far if your attempt to climb the steep Tioga Pass grade is unsuccessful. If you end up at the yosemite park entrance, you've gone far too far.
