Vhf vs Uhf vs ?

I've been looking for 2 way radios capable of working in very rugged terrain. Is there anything better than vhf or uhf for my case?

VHF can carry a signal further and pass through more obstructions, but is inherently more susceptible to interference. The further you go down the band, the longer the waves become and long distance communication is possible with very little power.

so is there such thing as LF 2 way radios? All I've found below VHF is data only radios.

Probably because you would need a HAM license or equivalent to operate at particularly low frequencies or high Tx power.
