The formation in Wheat  was discovered by the farmer Tore Skogvold on the 2nd of September when he had started to harvest the wheat field. He found four circles of about 2,5 metres in diameter. Two of them were connected, forming a figure 8.  Two more circles (not connected) were lying about 35 metres further down the field.

He contacted Eva and Stig Ullereng whom he knew were interested in crop circles. They photographed the circles the  same evening and send the images and a short report to the Norwegian Crop Circle group:

The next day, Kåre Gøran Mangen Tjelte, went to inspect th e circles. The whole field was now harvested, but the circles were still visible on the ground. He looked closely at the two connected circles and noticed the ground under the downed plants was slightly "pressed down" (to about 2 cm lower than the surrounding soil). He could not see any footprints or traces left by humans or animals.
