Call Blasting is the practice of playing recordings of alleged sasquatch vocalizations at high volume across wilderness areas in the anticipation of receiving a response or drawing a curious sasquatch closer to the source of the sound.
No one is entirely sure of the origins of call blasting. Some credit veteran researcher John Freitas for inventing the practice; however, Roger Patterson is known to have used his own voice and a church bell to create a howl, which he in turned used in the field in the 1970s. Richard Greenwell also used call blasting.
Researchers are encouraged to use standard protocols and to share their results. The MABRC has put together protocols for call blasting in the field.
