Quick way to reach rock bottom? (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

abseil

'quick way to reach rock bottom?' is the definition.
(means of getting to the bottom of a rock)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for abseil that I've seen before include "Descend rock-face using a doubled rope - like Isabel" , "Descend down vertical surface using rope" , "Go down by rope" , "Descend by rope from helicopter" , "Descend vertical slope using rope" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
