How HEAL fits the ladder
Crossclimb stacks 7 words where each one changes a single letter from the word above it. Here's the full ladder for August 4, 2026, with “Get better, and a homophone of another answer in this ladder” highlighted:
| Rung | Word | Clue |
|---|---|---|
| Top word | HEAD | (unlocks last — fits the letters above the ladder) |
| Clue rung | HEAL ← this clue | Get better, and a homophone of another answer in this ladder |
| Clue rung | HEEL | Part of the foot, and a homophone of another answer in this ladder |
| Clue rung | FEEL | Touch with one’s hand |
| Clue rung | FEES | Fixed prices for a service |
| Clue rung | SEES | Observes with one’s eyes |
| Bottom word | SETS | (unlocks last — fits the letters below the ladder) |
