Description 

A short splitter line with cool climbing, but not without a healthy dose of sand. Shallow left-facing corner with fingers and ringlocks to tight hands, flared bulge on cups, delicate crack switch right into tight hands-cups splitter to belay shelf. May clean up with traffic, may just be a sandier route. Might be a bit of a sandbag (no pun intended).

Named after a terrible alcoholic energy drink a friend sent down from Montana...doubt they're available in Utah. Pizzo's first new route!

Location 

In the center of the wall between Marathon Gasp (to the left) and Unknown 11+ wavy splitter (to the right). There's a plaque.

Protection 

(2).75, (3) #1,2,3 Camalots, slings, chain anchors.
