PRESERVING RADIO HISTORY ACROSS COLORADO

KSNO-FM

KSNO 103.9 is a Roaring Fork Valley station licensed to Snowmass Village, with roots going back to an AM station founded in 1964. It got its FM license in the 1980s. The call letters point to either the Snowmass tower site or the snowy weather. It now plays classic rock under names like “Ute City Radio” and “The Mammoth,” and reaches from Glenwood Springs to Aspen, up Snowmass Creek and over to Redstone with help from several translators. Andrew C. Scott, founder of the Open Mind Project, runs it through licensee Wild Goose LLC.
