What reading level is Camps in the Rockies Being a Narrative of Life On the Frontier And Sport in T book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Here, a Camps in the Canyons of the Colorado River. 313 little lower again, the walls attain a height of some 1500 feet, consisting of gigantic steps of sandstone, each with a face of naked red rock and a glacis clothed with the stunted growth of gnarled cedars, fringed by a belt of snow, giving the whole a quaintly stratified appearance ; bands of red, green, and white following each other at regular intervals. A day or two later I visited the lower canyons, beginning with the gorge rendered m...emorable by the Ashley Falls. The river here is very narrow, the right wall vertical for many hundred feet, and then sloping off; the left towering to a great height. At the foot of the latter there is a huge mass of debris, a portion of which has evidently fallen into the river. Indeed, one or two gigantic boulders occupy the centre of the channel, and here the waters (so Powell says) tumble down about twelve feet, and are broken again by the smaller rocks into a rapid below. The very confused mass of slabs of ice, rent into hundreds of different shapes, which lay in piles about, and the partly open, partly closed condition of the river at this point, made it difficult to recognize the falls from Powell's description, and it was nearly impossible to make a correct estimate of the height.
