Footnotes ...
<1> | Our distances are not driving distances, but are calculated as a 'straight-line' distance. A straight line distance ignores things like rivers, canyons, lakes, et cetera - it's truly a line from Point A (ie- Stevens Mill) to Point B.Our distance measurements begin at a specific point in Stevens Mill. The point we use is located at these GPS coordinates - Latitude: 44.0879, Longitude: -70.2620 In this case, the coordinates for Stevens Mill have been provided by the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS). |

<3> | An 'estimated' location is one where we have been given GPS coordinates, but are unable to verify the accuracy of those coordinates. That said, we have some confidence that we have placed the marker near the actual location. A typical reason for being unable to verify a location is that it might be on private property or maybe historic and gone without an obvious trace. |
