A straight line distance ignores obstructions like rivers, canyons, lakes, et cetera - it's truly a line from Point A (ie- Champion) to Point B.Our distance measurements begin at a specific point in Champion. The point we use is located at these GPS coordinates - Latitude: 40.4701, Longitude: -101.7472 |
