I have used an FSR radiop to keep track of family members at ski areas where they work well. In fact Squaw Valley has a channel that allows skiers using the radios to contact ski patrol. I would be very doubtful that hikers would have one of these radios turned on to be heard by your call. The best radio for reaching help would be a Ham Radio which requires a liscense for use. Here is a new concept/product that might be worth a try:
