I've arrived at the border on level 3 and have taken out the guards. I saw no other way to get in the watch tower but to jump to it from the hill right behind it. Yet I can't make THIS jump! Any tips or suggestions?

Make a running jump from the hill to the tower. Make sure your weapon is HOLSTERED (stowed away), so that you can grab hold of the ledge....

I've made at least 20 attempts at this jump now. Yes, I did have my weapon holstered everytime I made the jump. I also had running on default. I've also lined up directly with the tower. I've also jumped at the very end of the hill. And I bounced off the watch tower platform everytime. That's why I'm asking for some advice. It must be something I have against tower jumps (i.e., radio tower). Do I need to do anything else?

Hey Atom Man!,

Is all you have to do is hold the ALT button when performing that jump from the hill. The alt button tells Indy to hold on to the object.

Thanks! I did it on my first try!
