Frost in Crimea (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rime

'frost' is the definition.
(rime is a type of frost)

'in crimea' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates a hidden word.
'RIME' is hidden within 'crimea'.

(Other definitions for rime that I've seen before include "Hoarfrost" , "Hoar frost" , "Kind of frost in mire" , "''The ... of the Ancient Mariner'' (Coleridge)" , "Ice" .)
