"Feature of a raincoat that covers the head" answer
The answer for Tuesday's puzzle is:
HOOD
The rest of the ladder at the top of the page stays hidden until you tap a rung, so you can check this word without giving away the others.
Why HOOD fits
If you've already solved HOLD, change its third letter from L to O. Coming from HOOK instead, swap its fourth letter, K, for a D. Either way, you end up at HOOD.
