| <1> | Our distances are not driving distances, but are calculated as a 'point-to-point' distance.  A straight line distance ignores  things like rivers, canyons, lakes, et cetera - it's truly a line  drawn from Point A (ie- Whitman) to Point B.Our distance measurements begin at a specific point in Whitman.  The point we use is located at these GPS coordinates - Latitude: 36.3123, Longitude: -84.1069        In this case, the coordinates for Whitman have been provided by the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS). |
