Actaully, Brian M had it right, these are irrigated fields. Some
mathematician at some point figured out that the most efficient use of
water to irrigate a crop was in this circle manner. Crops like that
can be seen all over the South West USA. The arm in that waters the
crop starts at the center and rolls around in a circle thus providing
water to the entire crop evenly. It's boring as can be to watch,
unless it's sped up, then it's funny.

When you zoom out of this link it is amazing to see the remoteness of
this area. The government sure picked a good spot for the base.
What are the green circles to the north of the lake on the other side
of the mountain?
