97.7 Snow FM (call sign: 2SKI) is a commercial radio station in New South Wales, covering the areas of Cooma, Jindabyne, Thredbo, Perisher and Charlotte Pass. The station broadcasts on multiple frequencies to reach the townships within the Snowy Mountains region. Snow FM is a part of the Capital Radio Network.

Snow FM services roughly 25,000 permanent residents,[1] but also services the large number of tourists who visit the nearby ski resorts of Thredbo, Perisher, Charlotte Pass and Selwyn Snowfields.

Snow FM shares much of its branding, format and music with their Capital Radio Network sister station, 93.5 Eagle FM, based in Goulburn.

In June 2015, Snow FM and XLFM (then 2XL), switched to the Zetta play out system, as Capital Radio Network continued to roll out the play out changes.[2]

In July 2019, Snow FM begun broadcasting into Canberra on DAB+ Digital Radio. The transmission is made through Capital Radio Network sister stations 2CC and 2CA, based in Canberra.[3]
