The Mummy Spring Trail splits at this point. The path up leads to the spring and a small waterfall. If you want to follow the trail down (not marked on all maps), you have to struggle a little through the scrub to find the partly quite steep but rarely used path along Deer Creek.

On the east slope of Mummy Mountain, you pass through an open, gravelly hillside dotted with ancient Bristlecone Pines and reach Mummy Springs. Just 0.3 miles off the main North Loop Trail (0.6 miles round trip from the North Loop) this peaceful spring waters a picturesque alpine meadow and a lovely place to take photos and rest.
