Carbonado Travel Guide

Tourist Guide

Driving into the Clearwater Wilderness area is like a trip back in time. The curving roads take you first through the quaint, old-western town of Wilkeson, before depositing you suddenly at the edge of a deep ravine, crossable only via the one-lane Fairfax Bridge. On a misty morning, this is an unforgettable scene - one that makes you feel much further from civilization than you actually are. Just make sure to check for oncoming cars before making your way across! #lifeatexpedia #roadtrip

Lovely place. Thoughtful amenities.
The tiny house had what was advertised.. a small cozy place. We stayed in container 3 and loved our first experience in a tiny container home. BBQ grill and outdoor vibes were amazing.
