    None of the above so far, VC is closest but still a long way off the mark :-)

    Nothing that exciting, not sure whether to spill the beans yet or see what other inventive ideas come up!

    Nothing cave/underground related, water related... Should probably spill beans as its probably not something people will guess but it's entertaining seeing the head scratching

    I understand that some remote river flow level sensors use LPG to drive their drum recorder charts so I'd guess either that sort of caper or charging up a weather balloon

    Doesn't look too fresh, very well could have been from the rut or velvet.
    Some deer particularly young idiots rub all year. I've seen little 8 pointers smashing trees in July


    I prefer meat in its original packaging

    Sika, reds or fallow in the area? I often find fresh scrapes and rubbings right through from Feb-June mainly in sika country. I always assumed that they just give the trees a good hiding both while stripping velvet and when worked up during the rut. I have never seen them smashing trees during the rut but have heard it a number of times, heard it just two weeks ago. Its not unusual to find fresh rut sign at this time of year.
