Definition of Sierra Sounds
The Sierra Sounds are audio recordings made by Ron Morehead and Alan R. "Al" Berry, allegedly capturing Bigfoot vocalizations in the Sierra Nevada mountains beginning in 1972. Morehead produced and released the recordings on CD and cassette as The Bigfoot Recordings Volume 1 (1996) and The Bigfoot Recordings Volume 2 (2003). Enthusiasts of Bigfoot commonly reference the recordings as among the most compelling evidence for the existence of Bigfoot, though scientific consensus maintains Bigfoot remains firmly within the pseudoscience of cryptozoology and is not a real creature.
