A straight line distance ignores obstructions like rivers, canyons, lakes, et cetera - it's truly a line drawn from Point A (ie- Hayesville) to Point B.Our distance measurements begin at a specific point in Hayesville. The point we use is located at these GPS coordinates - Latitude: 36.0204, Longitude: -82.8082       In this case, the coordinates for Hayesville have been provided by the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS).
