Why This is the Correct Crossclimb #792 Solution?

Final Ladder: BOOK → BOOS → BOYS → BAYS → BARS → MARS → MARK

How to Solve Crossclimb #792

  • The first five clues are fairly direct: the clue "___ and girls" leads to BOYS, the clue "The Red Planet (4th from the Sun)" leads to MARS, the clue "Coastal inlets (like those near San Francisco and Bengal)" leads to BAYS, the clue "Sounds from a disappointed crowd" leads to BOOS, and the clue "Soap units" leads to BARS.
  • Next, sort those five answers into a one-letter ladder: BOOS, BOYS, BAYS, BARS, MARS. BOOS changes one letter to become BOYS, then BOYS changes one letter to become BAYS, then BAYS becomes BARS, and BARS becomes MARS.
  • The final clue, "The top + bottom rows = A compound word for something that keeps your place when reading a novel. Keep in mind: The first word may be at the bottom.", points to the compound word BOOKMARK. That gives BOOK as the top locked word and MARK as the bottom locked word.
  • Place those locked words around the middle ladder to get the full sequence: BOOK, BOOS, BOYS, BAYS, BARS, MARS, MARK.
  • The completed path works because each neighboring word differs by exactly one letter all the way from BOOK to MARK.

Final path: BOOK → BOOS → BOYS → BAYS → BARS → MARS → MARK.
