 +==== DC capped routes ====

 +Some routes have a minimum DC that you can't go under. You'll know as soon as you hit it. 
 + 
 +For example if there's a DC 15 wall. You would see as soon as you had studied it for more than one minute that there is no way to climb it easier than 15 and wouldn't have to waste more time studying it. (Because the DM will tell you.)

 +These come from modules (Tomb of A have some routes like this), never from the natural veins.

 +===== Spider Climb spell, or monster with Climbing speed =====
  
 +Don't worry you can easily traverse any of these w/o rolling, except climbing on a Giant or other monster.
