There are few things more enjoyable than skiing down a slope on a brisk, winter day. At the same time, there is no denying that this activity can be rather dangerous. Thus, when heading out onto the slopes, it makes sense to take the best two way walkie talkie radios on the market with you. You can then converse about where you are and what has happened but likewise, the best place to meet for lunch, what run you are on or the where the closet beer stop is! If you're heading on a Ski Peak holiday, then we have some great suggestions for all those things. If you are yet to confirm your booking with us, then fill in this short form. We'll come back to you with some brilliant options for that amazing winter ski holiday.

If you need help picking out the right ones for you and your ski buddies, then you've come to the right place. Here are the walkie talkies that you can’t go wrong with on a ski trip:

1. Motorola 22-Channel Weatherproof Two Way Radio

The reason this radio is perfect for skiing is because of its weatherproof capabilities. It boasts an IP54 rating. As a result, it is capable of withstanding use in the snow, rain, and virtually any other environment.

Your group doesn’t have to worry about getting separated from each other. The range is up to 35 miles. So, if you need to scatter in case of an avalanche warning, you can be confident knowing that you will be able to remain in contact.

If that wasn’t impressive enough, this two-way radio also gives you access to 22 channels. Since the radio relies on FRS/GMRS channels, you can contact other radios that are using the same channels. This allows you to get help from virtually anyone in the vicinity. To make your connection more secure, there are also 121 privacy codes.

Last, but certainly not least, it can work off either rechargeable batteries or AA batteries. So, even if you are don’t have your charger, you will still be able to get it to work.

As you know, when you are out on the slopes, it is important to stay on top of weather alerts. This walkie talkie makes that a lot easier to manage with the NOAA Weather Scan and Alert feature. It automatically scans through the available channels, locking onto the strongest signal quickly. This way, you will always know exactly what is headed your way.

You don’t have to worry about using it in the snow. It's water-resistant and durable and can hold up well in most weather conditions. It was built for open spaces, with a range of around 38 miles, ensuring that you will be able to keep in touch with everyone in your group.

In case you don’t want anyone to overhear you, this won’t a problem. With the privacy codes, there are 2,662 channel options to select from. The dual battery feature means that you will never run out of power, especially when you need it the most.

This is two way radio is built specifically to be used in cold weather. It can work in temperatures as low as -22°C. Thus, no matter how cold it gets, you will still be able to use it during every stage of your skiing trip.

In addition, this walkie talkie is also water-resistant. Even if you were to accidentally lose it in the snow, you can be confident that it will continue to work well. It is also resistant to most drops and falls, making it perfect for skiing.

With 22 channels to select from, you will be able to connect with whomever you need to. Just as impressive is that the connection is bound to be crystal clear. If you want some privacy, then you can choose to encrypt the connection.

4. Ansoka Long Range Walkie Talkies

This is yet another two-way radio designed for colder temperatures. Even if you are skiing in an area where the temperature drops to well below freezing, it will continue to work beautifully.

While it may not boast as long a range as some other models, you can still keep in touch with people as far as 3 miles away. So, even in a hazardous situation, you will have no problem staying in contact with other members of your group.

As there are 16 preset channels to select from, you will be able to stay in constant contact with others, regardless of how busy the area might be. Finally, this walkie talkie has an incredibly long-lasting battery that can last from 12 to 24 hours without needing to be recharged!

When you are skiing, handling anything can be pretty tough with your gloves on. This two-way radio has taken care of that issue with anti-slip design. Even if you do drop it, there won’t be any damage since it boasts a shockproof design.

Not to mention, it isn’t just water-resistant, it is waterproof. So, if you need to be out in the snow for an extended period of time, without any cover, you can be certain that this one can withstand the conditions.

The 22 preset channels complete with privacy codes keep your conversations crystal clear and secure at all times. The walkie talkie also has an impressive battery life, making it ideal for emergency situations. Furthermore, it automatically goes into battery saver mode when not in use.

These are the best ones that you can rely on when you are out on the slopes. So, the next time you go skiing, you can do so with complete peace of mind.
