Not only do these radios make it easy to communicate with others when skiing, but they offer a built-in flashlight and an emergency alarm to help draw attention when in trouble. Thanks to their long communication range and impressive privacy codes, they can easily be used in areas with a lot of people.

The voice activated transmit feature makes it easy for skiers to communicate when on the go without getting frustrated or having to remove their gloves.

• It’s easy to accidentally bump the channel knob and change the channel
• Can be difficult to seat in the charger to ensure fast and correct charging

Retevis RT45 Two-Way Radios

Skiers can choose from 10 different tones for their call alert, making it easy to attract attention on the slopes. The clear sound and adjustable volume make these radios easy to use when skiing. Since the screen is so easy to read, all skiers will be able to adjust their settings easily.

Thanks to the high-quality VOX function, users can use their voice to activate the radio. The battery lasts for around 10 hours, ensuring that skiers have the ability to connect with each other throughout the day without worrying about their equipment failing them. 

• 121 privacy codes on 22 channels provides safety and security when communicating

The privacy codes help limit interference from other users and allow skiers to communicate with each other without worrying about other people hearing their conversation.

• Range can be negatively affected by large trees

Features You Must Consider

Size and weight.

It’s imperative that the two-way radios that skiers select to keep in contact with each other are light enough to be easy to carry and won’t add a lot of bulk. Ergonomically shaped radios are going to be much easier to carry and use with gloves on.

Models that have an antenna that is near the same length as the body tend to be very powerful in a small package. These are a great option for skiers and are easy to use without being oversized, which can make them difficult to handle and to control

Read Also: Best Helmet Cameras for Skiing

The channels that a two-way radio operates on will play a huge role in how easily skiers can connect with each other. Most of these radios will have 22 channels that they can operate on. It’s important to make sure to choose a radio with ample channels to choose from, as this will make it easier to connect with the desired person without dealing with interference from others.

Privacy Codes

In busy locations it is normal for all 22 channels to be used at once, which is why it’s a good idea to look for radios that come with a squelch system. These allow skiers to use a busy channel without interference thanks to the use of privacy codes.

While these codes won’t be able to fully eliminate unwanted chatter from other skiers, they are a great way to make it easier to communicate with each other. These codes don’t make a conversation private, but do help to eliminate interference from other users. 

Being able to page another skier allows users to grab their attention before speaking, which can help to get a message across without frustration. Some radio models even have the option for users to set their paging to vibrate instead of sounding an alarm or alert.

Voice activated radios are much easier for some skiers to use, as they don’t have to remove their gloves to operate this equipment. Not all radios offer this hands-free operation option, so skiers need to decide if it is important to them.

These radios operate by automatically broadcasting as soon as the user speaks in the direction of the radio. This allows for hands-free operation, which can be useful when wearing bulky ski gloves.

Coverage Range

The coverage range of a radio will be greatly impacted by how many trees, mountains, and other large structures, such as buildings, and ski lifts, are in an area. High-wattage radios are going to be more expensive than low-wattage options, but can have a greater range of coverage.

While a lot of radios claim to have a range of up to 25 miles in the best conditions, the range will be significantly less when used on a ski slope or in the mountains. 

Battery Life

No skier wants to worry about running out of batteries when away from the lodge or cabin, but this can easily happen when a lower quality radio with subpar batteries is used. Not only do the batteries need to charge quickly, if they are rechargeable, but they must last for a long time to ensure that the radio will provide the safety and function that the skier needs.

Some radios offer a stand-by mode that will help save battery power when the radio is not actively in use. This is a great feature to look for, as it will help skiers ensure that they don’t run out of power during the day.

Out of all the options the Retevis H-777 Two-Way Radios   are our favorite. Considering the functionality that you get for the cost, it’s an excellent choice for people who need to stay in touch on the slopes.

The Best Radios for Backcountry Skiing

Never lose your partner in deep trees again..

Heading out the door? Read this article on the new Outside+ app available now on iOS devices for members! >","name":"in-content-cta","type":"link"}}'>Download the app .

One of the best things about backcountry skiing? The total freedom that comes with zero cell service. One of the worst things? The total logistical chaos that follows.

If you’ve ever waited a small eternity at the bottom of a run, misplaced your partner in some dense trees, or decided on that far-right line at the last second (then got in a fight with your significant other when he couldn’t find you afterward), you can probably understand why a mountain-compatible communication system could be a game-changer. Enter handheld radios. The past few years have seen a resurgence in the use of walkie talkies, in backcountry and resort settings alike, and we’re here for it.

Keeping it Legal

But before we get into our recommendations, we’re obligated to pass on some pretty critical legal info to keep you out of trouble. Radio technology has come a long way in the past decade, and the Federal Communications Commission (FCC)—the overlords of radio regulations—have had to tweak their policies a few times to keep up. The latest: Stricter enforcement on licensing.

Right now, you’ll come across three main categories in the backcountry radio game. There are lower-wattage family radio service (FRS) walkie talkies, handheld general mobile radio service (GMRS) radios, and very high frequency (VHF) radios.

VHF radios (and dual-band UHF/VHF options) have the highest wattage and therefore the best range. Handheld GMRS options are one step down from that, maxing out at 5 watts. The rub: To legally operate a GMRS or VHF radio, you’ll need a license to avoid risking thousands of dollars in fines. For that reason, you’ll usually only see VHF radios strapped to the packs of ski patrollers and guides—though you’ll see the odd recreational skier flaunting a questionably legal UHF/VHF BaoFeng radio in the backcountry every now and again.

License-Free Radios

The third category of radios, FRS, caps out at 2 watts. At first glance, they might look like the walkie talkies you used to play G.I. Joe growing up, but they come with their own major perks. For one, FRS radios don’t require a license. They also tend to be more user-friendly and glove-compatible than VHF options. Plus, 2 watts is all you’ll need for most recreational skiing.

Some FRS options list ranges up to several miles in the mountains, but when your buddies are waiting for you at the base, a pitch away, or just around the bend, that’s usually more than enough. These days, the leading contenders also have stand-out weatherproofing and battery life—features you’d be hard-pressed to find in the walkie talkies you used as a kid.

So, without further ado, here are our top picks for FCC-certified, ski-ready FRS radios.

Rocky Talkie

While newer to the market, Rocky Talkie radios have been gaining traction fast thanks to a top-tier combination of features, battery life, and durability. The batteries, which charge at lightning speed via a USB-C cable, will keep kicking for three days or more with normal use, even in temperatures down to -20°F. IP-56 waterproofing means the whole kit is splash-proof and snow-proof, and a fully-rated climbing carabiner and metal-reinforced backup leash prevent drops. And even if the radio does take a spill, the shatterproof screen, protective case, and two-year warranty all have you covered. Bonus: 128 channels and 121 privacy codes mean you’ll never fight for airtime.

$110; 8 oz.; rockytalkie.com

BCA BC Link 2.0

Created specifically for skiers, the Backcountry Access BC Link remains the O.G. backcountry radio. The standout feature is its Smart Mic, which clips to your backpack strap, letting you change channels and communicate with partners while leaving the bulkier radio body in your pack. Like the Rocky Talkie, the BC Link 2.0 boasts IP-56 waterproofing and a snow-shedding grill. It gets up to 40 miles line-of-sight range and up to six miles in hilly or forested terrain. Battery power is a little less than that of the Rocky Talkie—up to 40 hours in temps down to -4°F—but the three-year warranty is generous. And with 22 channels and 121 sub-channels, you’ll have plenty of options for finding your own niche among the airwaves, even on crowded days out in the backcountry.

$190; 11 oz.; backcountryaccess.com

Midland X-TALKER T71VP3

The Midland X-Talker T71VP3 is a lightweight, budget-friendly FRS radio that keeps safety front and center: It automatically locks onto your local weather station and sends you weather alerts any time there’s a storm coming your way. The T71VP3 also has a hands-free voice-activation feature (useful with gloves on), some light water resistance, and a three-year warranty. The listed range is 38 miles line-of-sight, though users can expect just a few miles max in the mountains, similar to other 2-watt radios. At just 15 hours, battery life doesn’t touch that of the Rocky Talkie or BC Link 2.0, but it’s the only radio out of the bunch with removable battery packs, which means you can bring a couple and switch them out midday if you need to re-up. The T71VP3 also has plenty of channel options: a full 36 with 121 privacy codes to choose from.

$80; 6 oz.; midlandusa.com
