Description Go Ahead and Jump is located about 25 yards left, or east, of Kemosabe and five feet right of a large (5 foot tall) white boulder leaning against the crags. Climb the crack located on the black face through a chimney and up to a tree - optional belay and rappel station. Pull through another chimney to a ledge and another tree. Belay here then hike west to the top of Tonto and rappel that route with a 60 meter rope.
Protection Standard rack

By John Wilder From: Las Vegas, NV May 9, 2010 rating: 5.5
| a very nice little crack- an excellent first lead, varied climbing, well protected. nowhere near its 5.7 rating in Brock- Handren rates it at 5.6, which, imho, is generous as the 5.6 crack to the right (OK, OK, OK) felt more difficult than this one. Note: This route stays wet late into the spring- watch your ropes when rappelling! |

| New cord on the tree as of this summer. You're welcome. PS that bolt is a Star Dryvin that predates my conception-use at your own risk. Think the 5.7 rating comes from all the folks who flounder at the start. Look for the feet and it IS 5.6 if not easier. |

| To make this a 5.7, climb the face to the left of the upper crack above the midway ledge/bush. It's runout, but the holds are there. (See Dumptruck.) |

| Without the little 5.6 boulder problem at the start, this route would be 5.4/5.5. |
