Make the most of an adventure (7)

I believe the answer is:

exploit

This clue is a double definition.

'make the most of' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'an adventure' is the second definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

(Other definitions for exploit that I've seen before include "(Mis)use" , "Heroic achievement" , "Milk" , "The deed to make gain from" , "Make capital out of" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
