retto "climber" (PE17:182, language unidentified). The form is mentioned as somehow related to the Sindarin element -reth in Orodreth ("Mountain-climber") and could be either Old Sindarin or the Quenya cognate. *Ret- might then be the Quenya verb for "climb", a derivative of the root RETE of similar meaning.
