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 drawn from Point A (ie- Parker) to Point B.Our distance measurements begin at a specific point in Parker. The point we use is located at these GPS coordinates - Latitude: 36.5892, Longitude: -85.1000 In this case, the coordinates for Parker have been provided by the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS).
