Coiling the ropes after the 30m rap in. Very steep in this section of the STS couloir. Approx 60 degrees here. A full 60m rappel would get you past this steeper area, onto easier slopes below.

Upper slopes of the STS couloir.
The West summit of Mt Cheops. The entrance of the line is approx 80m further along this ridgeline.
The STS couloir main chute. Dispatcher's Bowl and Grizzly Peak can be seen across the valley (also great skiing).
Rappelling into the line. Approx 35-40m.
Looking back towards the crux. Slope is 60 degrees through this narrow choke on the skier's right, against the rock wall. This can be downclimbed or rappelled using an anchor on the right wall.
