The answers are:
MENTORSHIPPROUD
A smelly cargo… Odours Shipment. 14/2
And I found
Midshipmen – Neutron
Feels like this thematic some how
Yes, and perhaps MIDSHIPMEN—NEUTRINOS too. ☢
This was my answer as well!!
(Odorous-shipment)
Same. Just managed to look pre-dinner. Busy day.
ETHMOIDS – SPURN 13/2
This is the best answer, INMHO. No overlaps
my combo.. PROMINENT THUDS
Nice one! And, if you rearrange it, you get ORPIMENT – THUDS -which is what can probably be seen and heard in Hawaii.
Orpiment! Had to look that one up. Pleased to add it to the vocab. Nice call-out to Mauna Loa!
And, as a bit of trivia, neighboring Mauna Kea (& NOT Mount Everest) is the tallest mountain on Earth from base to peak. To see how the answer to ‘what the highest mountain on our planet is?’, is actually threefold, feel free to check out:

Better option! No overlaps.
Prominent Thuds here as well, also Pimentos Shroud. Shipment was tempting, but when Duros and Tudor(s) were rejected, I gave up on it. I thought surely Shrimp(s) or Dormouse or Thrush(es) would go somewhere, but no – not for me, anyway.
Same as Viswa!
Only the official answer for me.
I’m loving the other solutions!
PROMINENT THUDS for me too. And mercifully quick.
likewise! they were(actually) cutting down trees near me yesterday so i heard PROMINENT THUDS
Odorous Shipment
Prominent Thuds – for me as well.
I thought:
That’s how I always know where my children are.
DUROS – SHIPMENT (13/2) should have been accepted, but, as it wasn’t, I decided ODOROUS – SHIPMENT was my favourite two-word solution, followed by SHROUDS – SHIPMENT, both of which have an unpleasant thematic integrity, but not one that quite matches that of the three-word ODOROUS – SHROUDS – SHIPMENT. Yuck.
Tudor(s) was also rejected, to my chagrin, so no pairing with Shipment.
I was also annoyed that TUDOR was rejected, so ended up with SHROUDS – SHIPMENT.
ENDORSEMENT—TUTORSHIP
INDORSEMENT—TUTORSHIP
Significant for me as I tutor college students. 🙂
Some of my students are:
MIDSHIPMEN—NOTORIOUS
I had PENTOMINOS – SHROUD
Or Pimentos Shroud. What exactly they shroud, I do not know.
I finally eked out with PIMENTOS – SHROUD as well, thinking it would be the original, but alas, I’m chalking the last few days up to covid brain. Or, I could be shrouded in pimentos ;-0
Promontories shroud
SHROUDS-SHIPMENT This might be the one thing Jeff Bezos doesn’t deliver.
Au contraire! There are shrouds galore on Amazon! Maybe not the winding-sheets type, but still.
A 13/2: MENTORSHIP – PUD
Agreed.
Me too. I tend to rate myself vs the “official” solution to see whose has less letters. In this case, they easily could have turned PROUD to PUD and matched us, but they didn’t so(by my metric) we win.
pushrods – shipment
MIDSHIPMEN – NEUTRON for me too. Perhaps they’re on an atomic sub?
PROMINENT and THUDS
PROMONTORIES / SHROUD 18/2
…and they do
I found my (long) solution but tried first to make IMPROMPTU work.
MIDSHIP–PROTEINOUS
yikes, this one was a doozy (for me)
