Stranded in the Atacama desert? (4,3,3)
I believe the answer is:
high and dry
'stranded' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
I don't understand the remainder of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for high and dry that I've seen before include "Stranded, helpless" , "Without resources" , "like Noah on Ararat?" .)
