More and more ski areas are using FRS/GMRS Channels

As an avid skier and also on ski and trail patrol, I've been noticing a huge increase in people using FRS/GMRS radio channels.

A few popular ski areas in the back country, have now started posting the FRS Channels to use on their Trail Maps.

Even here in the State of Minnesota, many of us have started carrying FRS/GMRS Radios in addition to our ski patrol radios, as it's a good way to interface with the public if they need assistance.

This winter, if your out skiing or snowboarding, don't forget to bring your FRS or GMRS radio a long with you. Maybe we'll chat.

Note; Check out some of the backpack or fanny pack radios with a remote speaker mic with control buttons that are sold for outdoorsy type people. It's not just handheld type radios any more.
