Description
Taken October 2008 just above Narada Falls on Mt Rainier, Washington State.
Narada Falls
Perhaps the most popular waterfall in Mount Rainier National Park, Narada Falls has an ever-present following of visitors. Veiling over a wall of basalt, the Paradise River slides and plunges 17 feet into a small pool then spreads out and veils 159 feet in a lacy display that can stretch to 75 feet wide at peak flow. When the river is running high, be prepared to get soaked at the viewpoint - the spray is always funneled straight at the trail. While the commonly enjoyed viewpoint provides the best views of the falls, a second, less developed viewpoint further downstream yields a side view of the falls from below, which has been used for some of the more famous pictures of this waterfall. The falls can also be partially viewed from the side of SR 706 near a large pullout about ½ a mile east of the bridge over the Paradise River. During the winter, the falls freeze and become 150 feet of Icicles, which attract ice climbers from afar.

amazing water capture, you must have been in the water for this shot.. love it, voted
Greg Reed replied:
Thanks Christine for fav and the vote. I wish I could say I properly suffered for my art - but I was on a foot bridge that spanned the chasm of wild water and wound down next to the falls!
