Joshua Tree National Park

I’m heading to Joshua Tree National Park in April with my girlfriend. We are planning a few days of hiking and we will be mostly together. But, we are expecting that we may be going separate ways at times. Since cell phone coverage in the park is often non-existent, I’m considering bringing either FRS or GMRS two-way radios.

I doubt that we will never be more than two miles apart from one another, so FRS should work out fine. Any advantage to getting GMRS radios? Licensing them is not a big issue and has minimal cost.

Not really concerned about SOS issues as our cell phones can connect via satellite for SOS if needed!

Also, any other tips for Joshua Tree first-timers are appreciated.
