    Walden pond is the location of Thoreau's immersion into nature. It is nestled about a mile and a half in the wilderness, far enough for Thoreau to be secluded from the outside world yet still have access to society. Thoreau  built a small, quaint cabin to accommodate his needs(sleep,eat). Otherwise, the only other objects he possessed were but a few simple tools. He stayed at this location for two years, two months, and two days. He only occasionally travel back into town when it was necessary.
