The One Square Inch of Silence is located in the Hoh Rain Forest in the Olympic National Park. Here, it is possible to sit and hear no sound made by mankind. It is located about a 2 hour hike from the nearest visitor center and marked with a red rock. One is surrounded by nature.
At this site, there is jar of quiet thoughts where visitors can read notes left behind from other visitors (or leave one of their own).
Someday, I want to visit the One Square Inch of Silence site. But in the meantime, I'd like to find one of my own. Certainly on the St. Olaf campus, there is nowhere you can go where you're not surrounded by the sounds of other people. I'm sure there are other places of the world that are as quiet as this one.
I dare you to find one too.
