Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Yosemite Valley Since that day scientists have struggled with the question of the origin of the wonderful gorge, and many theories have been advanced. Was it due to some sudden titanic convulsion of Nature, which split open the earth's crust, leaving this great scar which Nature is covering with trees and owers; was it some tremendous subsidence clue to internal volcanic forces; was it the gradual, resistless erosive work of water, ever owing, through eons and eons of time, that wore away these granlte mountain peaks and left a valley in their place; or was it a glacier, a veritable mer-de-glace, that ground its downward way through the snowy passes until, meeting a gentler clime, it melted away, leaving us to read the story of its work in the glacial polish glistening upon the faces of Half Dome and old El Capitan? But the man who loves Nature in all her varied moods may well leave these problems to the academic discussion of science. Rather let his eye rove over the glorious riot of color and the splendor and majesty of form, the while his ear is charmed and his Whole being thrilled as Nature plays for him her wondrous scale of harmony from tinkling rivulet to thunderous waterfall.

Book Synopsis The Yosemite Valley by : Galen Clark
Download or read book The Yosemite Valley written by Galen Clark and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-23 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Yosemite Valley: Its History, Characteristic Features, and Theories Regarding Its Origin In 1904, when ninety years of age, Mr. Clark published a book on the Indians of the Yosemite, which was followed in 1907 by a volume on the Big Trees of California. These books are written in a simple and entertaining style and have proven valuable contributions to the lit erature of Western America. They have been widely read and are regarded as the most authoritative works on the subjects of which they treat. So far as I know, Mr. Clark's experience has been absolutely unique in becoming an author at the age of ninety. In this, his latest and most pretentious book, the manuscript of which he had personally handed to his printer less than two weeks before being summoned to his last account, he succinctly and delightfully presents descriptions of all the cataracts and waterfalls, Spires and domes, trees and flowers, islands and lakes, rivers and vales, and the multi plicity of other objects which have made the Yosemite Vallev the masterpiece of the scenic world.

This book was released on 2018-01-30 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Self-Guiding Auto Tour of Yosemite National Park U. S. Department of the Interior in 1916, administration passed to civilian hands. Today the visitors' contacts with this Service are largely through uni formed park rangers and naturalists, whose duties are to protect, preserve and interpret the park under the supervision of the park superintendent. The story of the formation of Yosem ite Valley goes back some two hundred million years when this land was beneath the sea. As it subsequently arose out of the sea it was covered with layers of sediments many thousands of feet thick, the remnants of which are seen today as greatly changed rocks in the foothills and on some of the park's highest peaks. The granites which now make up most of Yosemite National Park's rocks welled up underneath this old sea deposit as molten rock which cooled slowly as the sea deposits eroded away. As the Sierra tilted westward through three stages of uplift, rivers established courses down this slope wearing successively deeper valleys into the granite. About one mil lion years ago the third and last deep and steepsided V -shaped river valley was invaded at separate times by three ice age glaciers which carved the valley into its present U-shaped form. The first two glaciers were 3000 to 4000 feet deep and extended as far as El Portal. The third and last glacier, filling only about a third of the depth of the valley, drop ped its load of rocks and debris at a point between El Capitan and Bridalveil Fall. This made a dam which backed up the water from the melting ice to form Ancient Lake Yosemite, miles long and perhaps as much as two thousand feet deep in the area of Camp Curry. As the lake filled with sediment the present level floor of the valley came into being. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Valley Walls written by Glen Denny and published by Yosemite Conservancy. This book was released on 2016-05-10 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Half a century ago a rag-tag group of innovators was building a foundation for modern American rock climbing from a makeshift home base in Yosemite. Photographer Glen Denny was a key figure in this golden age of climbing, capturing pioneering feats on camera while tackling challenging ascents himself. In entertaining short pieces enlivened by his iconic black-and-white images of Yosemite's big wall legends, Denny reveals a young man's coming of age and provides a vivid look at Yosemite’s early climbing culture. He relates such precarious achievements as hauling water in glass gallon jugs up the east face of Washington Column, nailing the 750-foot Rostrum in a punishing heat wave, and dangling overnight on El Capitan’s Dihedral Wall in a lightning storm. Each true tale captures the spirit of historic Camp 4, where Denny and others plan the next big climb while living on the cheap and dodging park rangers.
