Keb Nordtoppen from Tarafalla, grade?

I hope to link the hills between Kebnekaise Fjällstation and Abisko (or several of them). Ideally coming off the Nordtoppen to Halspasset, Giebmebákti, Tarafala stuga.
But I'm struggling to get any information on the grade or length of the short section descending to Halspasset.
I'm quite happy at most grades and have done many alps 4000ers upto ED, but don't want to carry a rope if I can avoid the need to.
Thanks in advance and apologies for the English.

It is an easy descend for an experienced climber that is possible to do without rope. From my memory it is one rope length of climbing and the rest is more walking on snow. I did it in summertime. And i take it that you are not going down on the glacier. That is of course very dangerous in summer time without rpoes.

Från karta till horisont – behåll fokus med rätt sorts kontaktlinser
Synen förändras gradvis – men skärpan går att få tillbaka. Progressiva kontaktlinser är utvecklade för att låta blicken hänga med utan avbrott.

Thanks. Sounds promising, low grade down climb is fine.
No I wasn't planning to descend east down from the pass to the glacier. I will stay high north over Giebmebákti then descend.
 
This post might also be helpful—it’s an absolutely fantastic one, in my opinion. Well-documented with a high level of detail. It’s in Norwegian (slightly 'Swedified'?), but it should be possible to translate without missing any of the good bits.

There’s also one about the 2,000-meter peaks in Sarek

That's really good thanks
