What reading level is The Yosemite Guide book a Description of the Yosemite Valley And the Adjacent book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
79 exception, it sometimes happens here that heavy thimder-showers around the Valley raise the streams suddenly, in midsummer, to the highest point of their winter flow. This occurred in 1867, when a violent thunder-storm at the head of the Merced, in June, raised the South Fork at Clark's ranch and the Yosemite Creek several feet, within half an hour. This rain-fall was liuiited to a quite small area ; but a very large amount of water must have fallen in a short space of time. It was probably ...of the nature of one of those violent deluges, which not unfrequently occur in California, and which are generally known as " cloud-bursts. " Some comparison of the principal falls in the Yosemite with the most celebrated ones in other parts of the world will be of interest to the tourist, as enabling him to form an opinion as to their relative attractiveness. There are several circumstances to be taken into consideration, however, in a com- parison of waterfalls. Absolute height and quantity of water are imdoubtedly the two important elements ; but all the accessories have a share in pro- ducing the general effect.
