Only 150 feet from the road, Narada Falls is the largest waterfall accessible by car in the park and has long been a popular stop on the way to Paradise. The falls are formed by the Paradise River flowing over an andesite lava cliff to the valley floor. A wood bridge built in 1908 over the Paradise River at the top of the falls was replaced by the present bridge in 1928.

The Narada Falls Bridge is a reinforced concrete barrel arch bridge veneered in granite masonry. It is 63 feet long, 31 feet wide, and has a 36-foot span. Designed in the NPS Rustic style, the bridge frames the top of Narada Falls without distracting from the scenic view. It is a contributing structure in the Mount Rainier National Park Historic Landmark District.

On the other hand, July is Mount Rainier’s driest…

Narada Falls (Mount Rainier National Park) by Mark Stevens Via Flickr: I'd first read about a technique to use with the waterfalls where one uses multiple exposures in camera and has the camera combine it into one exposure or capture. It was first on the NikonUSA site, but here's another discussion (www.ephotozine.com/article/multiple-exposure-landscapes-1...). With the dry, hot summer in Texas, I hadn't had much of a chance to try out that technique. So there I was in Mount Rainier National Park, and I came up to the first waterfall...and I had my chance. I used 10 exposures, combining into one for the final image.
