What reading level is Travels Through the Alps book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
For two hours above La Berarde the ascent is not rapid. Opposite the valley of La Pirade, ^ the most considerable ravine which descends from the Montague d'Oursine on the left, the valley divides into two branches, both extremely grand. - By either we understood that the Val Gaudemar might be reached ; but we were not then aware that our guide had passed only by the one to the right. We preferred the other, which kept close by the foot of Mont Pelvoux, ^ whence we were to cross by the Glacier d...e la Condamina ^ and the Col du Says. Kodier, who was an excellent mountaineer and a trusty guide, though he had never passed this way, had satisfied himself on his previous journey, as he afterwards told us, that if the top of the Col du Says could be gained on the side of La Berarde, the de- scent would be practicable on the other. Leaving then the valley of Clot Chatel (in Bourcet's map) to the right, we ascended the Vallee de Conte Faviel, and reached the foot of the glacier in two hours from La Berarde.
