Abstract: Methods and systems are provided to aid a rock climber in remembering to attach to an auto-belay system prior to climbing. In one embodiment, a climbing notification system includes a climber component coupled to a harness. The climber component includes a first portion with a single sensor and an alarm; a second, detachable portion semi-permanently attached to a first, bottom surface of the first portion where the second, detachable portion is magnetically couplable to the first portion. The first portion may include a processor and a power source; wherein, in a first condition where the second, detachable portion is magnetically coupled to first portion, the alarm is disabled; and in a second condition, where the second, detachable portion is detached from the first portion, the alarm is generated in response to the single sensor detecting a threshold proximity to an antenna positioned at a predetermined height.
