What reading level is To California Over the Sante F Trail book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Also accessible from Grand View (Grand Canyon).
SAN FRANCISCO PEAKS.
Here, as in many other parts of the West, the actual height of a mountain is greater than is appar- ent to the eye. The ascent begins at a point considerably above where the Eastern mountain climber leaves off, for the reason that the whole region is itself a prodigious mountain, hundreds of thousands of square miles in area, of which the projecting peaks are but exalted lookouts. The summits of San Francisco Peaks are elevate...d nearly 13, 000 feet above the sea, and only 6, 000 feet above the town of Flagstaff. It follows that more than half of the actual ascent has been made without any effort by the traveler, and the same altitude is attained as if he had climbed a sheer height of 13, 000 feet upon the rim of the sea. There is the same rarefactioa of air, the same wide range over an empire that lies flat beneath the eye, limited only by the interposition of other mountains, the spherical contour of the earth, atmospheric haze, or the power of vision itself.
