This shows the Robber's Hole, captioned here as "the Well". There's an unfinished chamber, captioned here as "subterranean chamber", that appears to have been inteded as Khufu's -- or someone's -- resting place, but was left unfinished. The natural knoll at the surface was flattened off in preparation for the laying of the pyramid blocks.

Here is a recent video of teenager climbing down. Theres others of the climb up. One climb up showed section that had been bricked up but its interesting how worn the stone is even with holes in it.
Another thing I noticed is how frightening it would be to be up that high working. I bet most of the workforce could not hack it.
