When I thru-hiked the Arizona Trail, there was one section that involved crossing under some high voltage transmission lines, my hair stood up and also because i wasn't anywhere near a water source there were no bird noises and the cracking the power lines was almost the only sound other than my footsteps that I heard that day.
There was a real sense of, "civilization is around me but NOWHERE close".
