Mountaineering implement (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

piton

(Other definitions for piton that I've seen before include "Climber's spike" , "Spiked climbing aid" , "What mountaineer requires" , "Peg used in mountaineering" , "something used when climbing" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
