Where is the cable block located?

• A. Above the harness
• B. On the waist belt
• C. In the rope bag
• D. Under LT seat

Answer: (D)

The main concept here is choosing a safe, accessible storage location for a cable block so it won’t interfere with movement or safety equipment. Stowing the block under the LT seat keeps it secure and out of the way during climbing or gear handling, while still being easy to reach when needed. This position protects it from bouncing or snagging on the harness, waist belt, or rope, and prevents accidental movement that could complicate operations. Placing it above the harness could cause snagging on clothing or gear and restrict movement. Keeping it on the waist belt would crowd the midsection and shift with you, increasing discomfort and the chance of misplacement. Putting it in the rope bag hides it and delays access, which isn’t ideal during tasks that require quick deployment.
