Really want to 'get away' ... REALLY GET AWAY



Colorado has 'most remote' area in U.S.

Then here's the place: Hinsdale County, Colorado

Excerpt from the Denver Post article:

The southwest Colorado county, the U.S. Geological Survey says, has more wild and roadless land per capita than anywhere else in the contiguous U.S.

Kings County, N.Y. - better known as Brooklyn - has the least roadless land per capita.

Hinsdale also is one of the few places a person can wander more than 10 miles from a road, according to the study in today's edition of the journal Science.

Comment: I would prefer to live there than Brooklyn! Large image of above map (Denver metro: 1937 vs. 1997)
