surmountable
Able to conquer
Surmountable describes something that can be overcome or conquered.
The word appears almost exclusively with obstacles, challenges, or difficulties: The problems are serious but surmountable.
It's the opposite of insurmountable, though far less common—we tend to note when obstacles can't be overcome rather than when they can.
