Forest floor feature crossword clue
29 Across · WSJ Crossword, September 11, 2026 · 4 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Forest floor feature” is MOSS. It appears as 29 Across in the Wall Street Journal crossword of September 11, 2026, a Friday puzzle titled “Go-Betweens” by David Alfred Bywaters, and it fills 4 squares running left to right from row 4, column 18 of the 21×21 grid.
The clue is a straightforward definition, so the answer is a direct synonym or a factual match for the words as written. The entry begins with M and ends with S, and contains 1 vowel and 3 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Down entries should be enough to lock it in. Friday puzzles are the Journal’s contest crosswords with a hidden meta answer, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
