FRS 2-way radio in mountainous areas

Will a FRS 2-way radio work up in the mountains for me to communicate with my ski group?

If so, what type of distance should I expect these types of radios to function? I need long distance and reliability. Are there any specific makes and/or models you can suggest?

If FRS radios can’t do it, then what other type of 2-way would you suggest – excluding GMRS radios? I don’t like them.

We are going to Utah, and cover some pretty rough terrain, frequently getting separated.
I would like something reliable but affordable. (That is, if such a device even exists.)
