To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The snow was very soft, and we sank waist-deep in places. It was now 6 p. M. , so we pushed on as fast as we could so as to reach the bivouac before dark. The last quarter of an hour was cruel, hard work. We floundered in soft snow to our thighs at every step, and it seemed as if we would never reach our destination ; but at last we sighted THE ASCENT OF MOUNT TASMAN 175 the bivouac rock and arrived at 7 p. M. We had been out just sixteen hours, exactly the time of our previous attempt, but oh ...! the difference in our feelings. The glad knowledge of rest well earned, and a fine foe well conquered, after strenuous and unceasing effort, left us with that "peace which passeth all understanding, " which surely is the reward of those who come close to the heart of the mountains.
The following morning we set off for the Ball hut in the best of spirits, and after an hour's rest there proceeded on to the Hermitage, happily conscious that once again we had succeeded despite the prophecies of the multitude.
