How Far From Chippewa Lake to ...

We spend a lot of time looking through Gazetteers & Almanacs that were published in the late 1800's and early 1900's. Many of the Gazetteers include the distance from a village such as Chippewa Lake to various places of note, such as the White House.

With a nod to our favorite Gazetteers, the straight-line distance beginning in Chippewa Lake and extending to:

• Medina, which is the Seat of Medina County, lies just to the North Northeast.

If you could drive a straight line from Chippewa Lake to Columbus, with an average speed<3>of 63 miles [101.4 km] per hour, it would take less than two hours to make the trip. A comfortable walk of 2.2 miles [3.5 km] per hour would take 6 days. A horse and buggy averaging 3.2 miles [5.1 km] per hour would take three full days.
