Mountain identified by woman needing breather (7)
I believe the answer is:
everest
'mountain' is the definition.
(Mount Everest)
'woman needing breather' is the wordplay.
'woman' becomes 'Eve' (Eve is an example).
'needing' says to put letters next to each other.
'breather' becomes 'rest' (a breather is a break or rest).
'eve'+'rest'='EVEREST'
'identified by' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for everest that I've seen before include "The highest mountain of all (7)" , "The world's highest mountain" , "Highest peak" , "Tallest mountain ..." , "Mountain on the Nepal-Tibet border" .)
