Myst V: End of Ages Hints
How do I climb up to the top of the cliff?
1 of 6: If you turn down the beach to the right as you're first coming to this age (i.e., from the pedestal in the "soap bubble"), you should see a relatively flat section of cliff face.
2 of 6: There's a rope with a handle hanging off this section of the cliff. It may be a bit easier to see the handle if you're looking up instead of straight ahead, but the handle should be within reach.
3 of 6: Pulling the handle down (click and drag with your mouse) will cause a ladder to be unrolled.
4 of 6: Climb the ladder.
5 of 6: Remember that you can't climb if your hands are full.
6 of 6: You'll need to drop the slate or at least leave it back on the pedestal. You can then climb to the top of the cliff.
