Distance Question

[+alphawolf88]

I have often seen posts where the cache is discribed as two miles from this co-ord or within one mile of that co-ord. Can anyone tell me approx how many tenths of a degree one could use to approximate a mile? Thanks in advance...alphawolf88

Thank you so much for your info and I think the primer is great. I am printing it out to give to my girlfriend (and there is so much useful info I will use it too). Thank you again and sorry to hear that your shoes are wet! All the best and stay healthy...
