Product Description +

This Mountain Radio Kit combines our award-winning, license-free Mountain Radio with the rugged Waterproof Hand Mic—delivering reliable communication in alpine and backcountry environments.

The Mountain Radio was designed and tested in the Colorado Rockies with climbers and skiers in mind. Compact, simple, and tough, it provides up to 3–5 days of battery life (even in -20°F conditions) thanks to a specialized lithium-ion battery. Built with a shatterproof LED screen, thermoplastic protective housing, and an ultralight carabiner + backup leash, it’s engineered to withstand drops, impacts, and wet weather. The radio transmits at the maximum legal power for license-free use (2 watts), with a typical range of 1–5 miles in backcountry terrain (up to 35 miles in ideal conditions). Out of the box, it’s ready to go—no setup or license required.

The Waterproof Hand Mic adds convenience and versatility to your setup. With an integrated speaker, microphone, and Push-to-Talk button, you can stow your radio in a pack or drybag while keeping communication at your shoulder. Compact, glove-friendly, and IP67 waterproof, it’s built for skiing, climbing, and any backcountry environment.

Hand Mic Features:

  • Waterproof + snowproof (IP67 submersible up to 1 meter)

  • Rotating 360° steel gator clip for flexible attachment

  • Compact and glove-friendly design

  • Housing engineered to reduce wind noise

  • K1 connector

Like all Rocky Talkie products, the Mountain Radio Kit is backed by our 2-year warranty and our commitment to sustainability.

"The Rocky Talkie is the best walkie talkie... thanks to its great communication range, sturdy build, and overall ease of use."

"From Eldo adventures, to ice climbing, to big alpine traverses, and I can honestly say the benefits of walkie talkies are even greater than I anticipated."

"The Rocky Talkie simply blew away the competition in our range and clarity tests, and it wasn't even really close."

    A durable little classroom assistant

    This is a short note to thank you for developing such a solid, reliable radio. Four years ago, you donated a pair of radios to the Ouray School District outdoor education class. My students and I spend our class periods hiking, climbing, skiing, and generally playing in the mountains. Getting back to school a little late is okay, but loosing a student is not an option, and having reliable communication is a huge help in keeping everyone safe and accounted for. They work in any kind of weather, and they work as well today as the day we first got them. Thank you!!!

    Expensive but worth it.

    Good range. Amazing battery life. Very durable.

    All my ski mates have them now (Also use them in the summer when mountain biking)

    So much better than trying to text when in the backcountry.

    Used on high school backpacking trip!

    Thanks to Rocky Talkie for providing these radios so our group leaders could communicate with each other on trail. They are durable, easy to use, and worked even in wooded areas when we weren't too far from each other.
