Submit to pressure and return to the base camp? (5,4)
I believe the answer is:
climb down
'camp?' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are verbs in their base form, I can't see how one could define the other.
I don't understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for climb down that I've seen before include "abandon position" , "withdrawal" , "A retreat from previous position - descend carefully" , "Withdraw from a previously held position" , "next task after reaching top of Everest?" .)
