I have some input on this. 8 hours from NYC? Try Adirondack State Park, it'=
s absolutely huge and there are some pretty remote places in their, especia=
lly in the high peaks region. This would have to involve some hiking of cou=
rse.
I think this is where Lang Elliott is near (or at) as Kevin Colver mentione=
d:
"Try contacting Lang Elliott in upstate NY, top of the heap recordist
with lots of recordings in the state"
I hope this helps.

Subject: [Nature Recordists] quiet spaces
hello again all
i'm on a project now and i need to record some quiet ambience
tracks [fields, forests, etc]. problem is, i'm in nyc which is one of
the loudest places i've ever lived.
i've rented cars and gone upstate, gone to jersey, and headed south
but i cannot seem to escape the ever-present drone of distant traffic.
are there any places in this north east region that someone can
recommend? anyplace within, say, within 8 hours of nyc?
is there a google map or google earth project that shows quiet areas?
if not, does anyone know how to make one?
as a general rule, how far should one be from a highway to avoid
traffic? 1 mile? 2?
cheers
jeremy
