How to Solve Crossclimb #794

Here’s the clean solving path for LinkedIn Crossclimb 794.

  • Start with the five regular clues. The clue 'Line on the scalp where hair is brushed in opposite directions' leads to PART. The clue '“The ___, the merrier”' leads to MORE. The clue 'Cut back, as expenses' leads to PARE. The clue 'Dark skin spot' leads to MOLE. The clue 'Adult female horse or zebra' leads to MARE.
  • Next, sort those five answers into a valid middle ladder: PART, PARE, MARE, MORE, MOLE. Each move changes just one letter: PART to PARE, PARE to MARE, MARE to MORE, and MORE to MOLE.
  • Then use the final clue 'The top + bottom rows = A compound word for a window on a ship. Keep in mind: The first word may be at the bottom.' The compound word is PORTHOLE, which gives PORT as the top locked word and HOLE as the bottom locked word.
  • Now place the locked words around the middle ladder to get the full path: PORT, PART, PARE, MARE, MORE, MOLE, HOLE.
  • The completed solution is valid because every neighboring pair differs by exactly one letter all the way from PORT down to HOLE.

Final path: PORT → PART → PARE → MARE → MORE → MOLE → HOLE.

Clue-by-Clue Analysis

Here’s a quick explanation of each answer in LinkedIn Crossclimb 794 and how the locked clue fits the finished ladder.

Crossclimb #794 Clue 1: Line on the scalp where hair is brushed in opposite directions

Line on the scalp where hair is brushed in opposite directions - PART
A hair part is the line where hair is separated and brushed in opposite directions. It’s the standard four-letter word for that scalp division.

Crossclimb #794 Clue 2: “The ___, the merrier”

“The ___, the merrier” - MORE
The familiar expression is 'The more, the merrier.' MORE is the missing comparative word and matches the phrase exactly.

Crossclimb #794 Clue 3: Cut back, as expenses

Cut back, as expenses - PARE
To pare expenses means to trim or reduce them. PARE is a common verb for cutting back something gradually or carefully.

Crossclimb #794 Clue 4: Dark skin spot

Dark skin spot - MOLE
A mole can mean a small dark mark on the skin. The clue is using that everyday definition rather than the animal or the chemistry term.

Crossclimb #794 Clue 5: Adult female horse or zebra

Adult female horse or zebra - MARE
A mare is an adult female horse, and the word also applies to a female zebra. That makes MARE a direct and precise fit.

Crossclimb #794 Clue 6: The top + bottom rows = A compound word for a window on a ship. Keep in mind: The first word may be at the bottom.

The top + bottom rows = A compound word for a window on a ship. Keep in mind: The first word may be at the bottom. - PORT + HOLE
A ship’s window is a porthole, so the compound splits into PORT and HOLE. The note warns you not to assume the order too early, but the validated ladder places PORT at the top and HOLE at the bottom.
