What reading level is Yosemite And Its High Sierra book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
pass is also used by the south-side road, where it skirts the river to-day.
The lake itself, probably within the last two or three hundred years, if we may judge by the trees growing where once was only water, has filled up with rich alluvial soil, brought down mainly by spring freshets from near-by heights, rather than by the larger river. To this source we owe the fertile valley floor, with an inestimable part of the beauty of Yosemite.
That the extraordinary depth and form of Yosemite Valley..., as well as of Hetch Hetchy and a few other moat-like mountain vales presenting the Yosemite type, and therefore generically called "yosemites," are mainly due to glacier-plowing and lateral glacier-plucking, which deepened and widened river gorges originally cut by water erosion and existing long before the glacial epoch or epochs, is a conclusion now so strongly fortified by observed facts that few geologists any longer dispute it. If they differ at all, it is as to the extent of such action, and the preparation by which other geological factors, chiefly arising from localized peculiarities of rock- structure in the Sierran granites, may have facilitated it.
