I may or may not call for checks at that stage. But if you prefer to do as Son of Meepo and preemptively roll knowledge/spot type checks then I have no problem with that either. He may or may not gain any useful knowledge from it.If there is knowledge I think is fairly important but not a puzzle buster then I'll sblock it with a DC. I don't care if players know it, but I expect that the characters will act as though they don't until either one pc lears and shares it.If it is a puzzle situation then you'll have to actively direct your PCs attention to the relevant parts for me to give hints and ask for rolls, e.g back at the waterfall.I hope  that helps.</blockquote>
