CG7235 is a short side trip to view the remains of the Williams Brothers Pumicite Mine and enjoy the surrounding desert scenery the elevation of the site provides. The location was last mined in the early 1950s. The pumice was carved from the surrounding hill making for great campsites and interesting terrain. A long deep, narrow channel was carved into the hill as a material loading station and is one of the remaining artifacts. The road is accessible by two-wheel drive, and dispersed camping is available along the road when following the BLM Barstow field office camping guidelines.
