K2 locale (4)
I believe the answer is:
asia
'k2 locale' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for asia that I've seen before include "Part of the world" , "its pampered jades couldn't draw much?" , "Continent of the Hindu Kush" , "space for economic expansion?" , "A is A (anag)" .)
