Our distances are not driving distances, but are calculated as a 'straight-line' (or point-to-point) distance. A straight line distance ignores obstructions like rivers, canyons, lakes, et cetera - it's truly a line from Point A (ie- Sherwood) to Point B.Our distance measurements begin at a specific point in Sherwood. The point we use is located at these GPS coordinates - Latitude: 35.0762, Longitude: -85.9233 In this case, the coordinates for Sherwood have been provided by the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS).
