Wander north into red mist? (5)
I believe the answer is:
range
'wander' is the definition.
(I know that wander can be written as range)
'north into red mist?' is the wordplay.
'north' becomes 'N' (abbreviation).
'into' indicates putting letters inside.
'red mist?' becomes 'rage' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'n' inserted inside 'rage' is 'RANGE'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for range that I've seen before include "Andes or Rockies, perhaps?" , "Aga or mountain, perhaps?" , "Scope; chain" , "Prairie" , "sight" .)
