No there isn't; it's all claimed by various people or national parks or something.

The idea that one can go out to the woods and build a new society unhindered is pure fantasy.

You absolutely could try. It would be fine until the already established hierarchies feel you're becoming a threat to their monopoly of power. Then they will come up with some reason to go out and shoot you or lock you up.

But I do think most of the people who say shit like they want to live in a wilderness commune would last two weeks before giving up and going back to running water, paved roads and grocery stores.
