Description 

This route is the just opposite Putterman Big Toe, it is actually the back side of that crack.

Approach as for Big Toe, when you get to the saddle between The house of Putterman and Neighbor Of Putterman head to the South face of Neighbor instead of the North. The climb is the first route on your right. You can't miss it, it is a splitter half inch finger line straight up the face. It is half inch for about 35 feet and then gets into hands then offwidth. Use the anchors for Puttermans Big Toe around the corner at the top. (unseen from the bottom of the route)

Protection 

Bring 3 or 4 exrta half inch cams or tri-cams for the splitter section. Otherwise a standard desert rack up to 3 inches will do.
