The San Rafael Desert is a maze of 4x4 trails crisscrossing the desert. Several do little more than connect you to other better trails. San Rafael Desert 9232 is like that. It's an out-and-back to a small turnaround with little more than a semi-obstructed canyon view of the San Rafael River. It's not bad, but indeed not a destination point. However, if you're a rock hound, the very end is a gold mine and possibly a spot to set up camp. This trail will most likely be used to access the remote camping on 9235. The trail is bumpy but nothing more than what was encountered on the trails leading you to this one.
