Teton Wilderness and Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming. A Havard University professor of landscape ecology did a study to find an area the farthest from any road in the lower 48.
*Edit - depends how you read the Question Jim. Want to get technical - some cave would be the deepest darkest.

You asked for the deepest darkest wilderness not the furthest from roads. That would have to be in the Pacific Northwest from Washington to N. California. There are forests there that are impenetrable and unexplored to this day. There are places there that are also very far from roads but due to logging, some inroads have been made into that country. I have camped there and it is very dark within the forest canopy. To walk a few hundred yards into it can be a major undertaking and there is literally thousands of square miles of uninhabited forests.

My guess would be Montana.
