Right pole deployed with summer climbing gear (4,6)
I believe the answer is:
rope ladder
'climbing gear' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps you can see a link between them that I don't see?
'right pole deployed with summer' is the wordplay.
'right' becomes 'r' (common abbreviation).
'deployed' indicates an anagram.
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'summer' becomes 'adder' (someone who adds or does sums).
'pole' with letters rearranged gives 'opel'.
'r'+'opel'+'adder'='ROPE-LADDER'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for rope ladder that I've seen before include "Something to get you down" , "etrier" , "not a stiff route to the top" , "Shaky steps" .)
