But let’s be honest, sometimes even the most seasoned crossword solver can get stumped.
Today, we’re tackling a particularly intriguing clue:
Peaceful Mountain-Climbing Detectives (6)
. This one has a nice ring to it, doesn’t it? It’s evocative, even poetic, conjuring images of serene mountain landscapes and the quiet determination of a detective on the trail. But what could it possibly be?
Let’s break down the clue to understand its potential layers.

immediately hints at a calm, possibly even spiritual quality. The detectives we’re looking for are likely not the rough-and-tumble, hard-boiled type.
“Mountain-Climbing”
adds a physical element. These detectives aren’t just thinkers, they’re active, perhaps even athletic, equipped to navigate challenging terrain.

confirms the nature of our subjects – they are investigators, problem solvers, seeking to unravel mysteries.
With all these elements in mind, let’s brainstorm some possibilities. Could it be a type of mountain animal known for its investigative skills? Perhaps a group of climbers who specialize in crime scene investigation? Or maybe something entirely different…
Let your mind wander, explore the possibilities, and see if you can crack this clue! We’ll reveal the answer in our next post, but until then, happy puzzling!
