Is able maybe to get down to rock bottom (6)
I believe the answer is:
abseil
'get down to rock bottom' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'is able maybe' is the wordplay.
'maybe' indicates an anagram.
'is'+'able'='isable'
'isable' anagrammed gives 'ABSEIL'.
'to' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for abseil that I've seen before include "Slide down on rope" , "Descend rock-face using a doubled rope - like Isabel" , "Climb down using a double rope" , "let oneself down" , "Is able (anag.)" .)
