The problem is, that even with a moderate dc of 10 and lets say a +5 for athletics, you get a 75% chance to fail, because the three rolls are dependant from a stochastic pov.in that case one roll for the climbing, and a second roll for your endurance aka a dc 10 constitution check would have been more fair, with the second check not necessarily having fatal consequences in case of a fail.maybe a botched con check.would force you to make a break at half height, or force you to climb down again.</blockquote>
