Looks like right in the middle of Oregon in the middle of "quiet".
Towards the top of a hot SE facing gradual slope at about 5,000ft
elevation with scattered trees on grassland without an understory.
Distant barren land but this does not appear barren where the
recording was made.  Just based on looking at google earth and
worldwind. Just cut and past the coordinates given into google earth
and then for further checking you can look at the 1 meter black and
white photo and topo at worldwind.
