scree
- n a sloping mass of loose rocks at the base of a cliff
- No rodents scurry amid the boulders and scree.
- A few days later, I was scrabbling up a steep scree slope to get a closer look at Koofai Nuamuri, the turquoise Lake of the Virgins and the deepest of the three craters.
- From Thyangboche camp, the climbers skirted Nuptse and pitched Camp I on the scree of Khumbu.
