Plain without trees (6)

I believe the answer is:

steppe

(Other definitions for steppe that I've seen before include "Large area of unforested grassland" , "Large treeless area of Siberia" , "plain territory" , "Dry grassy plain of central Europe" , "Dry grassy plain of eastern Europe and Asia" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.
