Notes
  • Significance: The gently-arched Paradise River First Crossing Bridge above Narada Falls is a characteristic "rustic style" bridge of the type commonly employed by the National Park Service and the Bureau of Public Roads in the national parks. The reinforced concrete barrel arch with the rugged landscape. The entire site development, including the bridge, parking areas, comfort station, foot trails and scenic overlook, were carefully designed to offer access to the splendid 168' waterfall. The bridge itself never served the original purpose of carrying the Nisqually Road, as traffic was subsequently rerouted over the "Narada Cut-Off"; it now provides limited access to the winter operations shed on the east side of the bridge, and trail access to the Narada Falls overlook.
