A straight line distance ignores obstructions like rivers, canyons, lakes, et cetera - it's truly a line drawn from Point A (ie- Kylemore) to Point B.Our distance measurements begin at a specific point in Kylemore. The point we use is located at these GPS coordinates - Latitude: 51.9048, Longitude: -103.6376
