Sounds attributed to sasquatch have been reported since the 1700s. What have become commonly known as the "Sierra Sounds" are the most noteworthy. They were unusual "chatterings" heard in an area of the High Sierras in California between 1971 and 1974. The sounds were recorded by Al Berry in 1972. There were several sightings and large human-like footprints were found in the area; the sounds were therefor attributed to sasquatch. The drawing on the left shows the layout of the area where the recordings were made in 1972.
