I'm not a mountaineer, so my proposal really is an attempt to make the % skill system scalable in time.

I would appreciate any effort of the more experienced climbers on the list to fill in the details.

Any interest in working out this system of long-term skill resolution? Do we need it? The rules for navigating a ship already provide something similar...
