Footnotes ...

<1>Our distances are not driving distances, but are calculated as a 'point-to-point' distance. A straight line distance ignores obstructions like rivers, canyons, lakes, et cetera - it's truly a line from Point A (ie- Warman) to Point B.Our distance measurements begin at a specific point in Warman. The point we use is located at these GPS coordinates - Latitude: 46.0583, Longitude: -93.2844       In this case, the coordinates for Warman have been provided by the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS).
