Firepit residue (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ash

'firepit residue' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for ash that I've seen before include "Tree with keys" , "Oleaceous tree" , "Tree with pale wood" , "Tree; burned residue" , "Hard pale wood" .)

I've seen this clue in the L.A. Times Daily, The Washington Post, the LA Times, the Universal and the USA Today.
