The Quest for Silence, Gordon Hempton's Mission in the Hoh Valley

Gordon Hampton, a soundtracker, is on a mission to preserve the last remnants of natural silence in the United States. He discovered a one square inch spot in the Ho Valley, the quietest place in the Lower 48, and works to protect it from noise pollution. Hampton monitors noise intrusions and advocates for legislation to designate Olympic National Park as a quiet park. His efforts aim to prevent the extinction of silence and protect wildlife.
