Footnotes ...
| <1> | Our distances are not driving distances, but are calculated as a 'straight-line' distance. A straight line distance ignores obstructions like rivers, canyons, lakes, et cetera - it's truly a line drawn from Point A (ie- Camarren Cove Estates) to Point B. Our distance measurements begin at a specific point in Camarren Cove Estates. The point we use is located at these GPS coordinates - Latitude: 41.3166, Longitude: -111.9413 [Map]. In this case, the coordinates for Camarren Cove Estates have been provided by the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS). |
| <2> | While we have tried to pick reasonable speeds, the rate of travel is very theoretical - obstacles like fences, hills, lakes, river crossings and rest stops have been ignored. When we say 'Days' of travel, we're assuming 8 hours of travel per day. |
