We took a drive to Longmire today - they required chains with 4WD to get up to Paradise and while we had the chains with us, we didn't want to hassle with putting them on - the ranger said road conditions were terrible. We went for a short walk and founds this lovely wooden suspension Bridge. Close up of side rail here http://365project.org/jankoos/365/2013-11-15.
@anazad511 - thanks for the fav, Ana! @swilde@rach_who - thank you both! @chard - Richard - Paradise has been paved with a parking lot for years. :-) That is if you are referring to 'Paradise' in Mt Rainier National Park. http://www.nps.gov/mora/planyourvisit/paradise.htm.
If you are referring to the Metaphysical term - well - if it's in America - yep - probably paved and selling tickets.
@taffy - Thanks Taffy - the snow is at the 3000 ft level - just an hours drive. :-) We are having a lot of snow in WA though - the ski resorts are open early.
