D1233 is a short, half-mile out-and-back 4x4 trail that leads to a turn-around for a hike to an overlook of Shafer Canyon. The trail requires 4x4 because of the trails leading there and an undercut rock ledge. The trail is narrow, with twisting turns through the tight trees. The trail abruptly ends at a grassy dune with no indicators of a hiking trail. To reach the Shafer Canyon overlook cliff edge, you must carefully hike through the crypto soil to reach views of Crow's Head Spire and the canyon. There are no campsites along this trail.
