CROP WATCH 2002

FOUR FORMATIONS - PUNNICHY, SASKATCHEWAN

Four more formations reported in Saskatchewan, by CCCRN field research assistant Beata Van Berkom and Kevin Schlosser. Found early September, reported after another article on the Canadian circles in the Western Producer agricultural newspaper on September 12.

First is three circles in a triangular pattern joined together by pathways in wheat, approximately 20 metres (65 feet) across. Counterclockwise lay in all three circles. Two pathways laid from center point toward two of the circles, the other from the third circle toward the center point. Sporadic 'burn marks' in the formation.

Second is a single circle in wheat, approximately 5.8 metres (19 feet) diametre. Counterclockwise lay. About 1.6 kilometres (1 mile) east of first formation.

Third is a circle with attached pathway in wheat, approximately 18 metres (60 feet) long. Counterclockwise lay in circle. Pathway ends at edge of crop field, next to a power pole. About 5.6 kilometres (3.5 miles) southeast of first formation.

Fourth is five circles in wheat (configuration not known). About 6.4 kilometres (4 miles) southeast of first formation.

Initial ground photos have been added to the web site for the first three formations. Further details pending.

These are the fourteenth to seventeenth reports for 2002.
