Ski-track confusion after stone buried (5)
I believe the answer is:
piste
'ski-track' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'confusion after stone buried' is the wordplay.
'confusion' becomes 'pie' (I've seen this in other clues).
'after stone' becomes 'st' (abbreviation. I am not sure about the 'after' bit.).
'buried' indicates putting letters inside.
'pie' going around 'st' is 'PISTE'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for piste that I've seen before include "slippery slope" , "A ski run of compacted snow" , "Winter sports course" , "Ski track" , "Skiing course" .)
