HERITAGE STUD FEMALE-Our top pick of young females at the Snowmass Auction, we were thrilled to be able to purchase Alpine Rose. High frequency crimp from topknot to toes, chest to tail. Fineness without sacrificing density, very bright with a super long staple, we can't believe our luck! We believe dam lines are most important in the genetic lineup. Rose's dam, an 11 year old Hemingway daughter Andean Snow has lasting crimp, fineness, and brightness like that of a two year old. Rose looks exactly like her sire Snowmass Overture, a favorite Quechua son out of Andean Song. Hemingway x 2, Maree Love, Duet, P Lace, Jesusa and Senora...what else can you say? Thank you to the Skinners for making it possible to purchase this exquisite Top of the Line female for our white breeding program. Rose's cria from Snowmass Vicuna Gold, Snowmass' replacement for his sire Conopa has arrived! A lovely fine high MC white female Vicuna Velvet. Rose was bred to ACCOYO AMERICA ROAD WARRIOR! 5/27/2017 A stunning white male named ALPINE WARRIOR. Rose has been bred back to our Matrix son Matrix Magic who is closed to outside breedings. 9/5/18 Rose delivered a very nice white male with bright crimpy fleece who is included in the sale. He has the Matrix small fawn spot on his side from his sire but could still be shown in walking fleece and then breed him to white or color! (SOLD) Rose has been rebred to Principio's Heartbreaker for his first cria. Too late! Rose delivered Heartbreaker’s first cria, a 21.6 lb beige female. Absolute stunning and Rose’s best cria, Rose has been exposed to PC RUNNING LATE. If not pregnant she can be rebred to any of our males. We will be keeping this girl named Alpine Melody as Rose's replacement. Rebred to PC Running Late she delivered a stunning male Heritage Peruvian Justice who will be on our show string hopefully in 2021. Rebred to our newest Herdsire, Snowmass Lovers Legacy XX one of our favorite Lovers Legacy girl of 2021. Density, brightness, long staple and fineness in one beige package with her dam’s headpiece. Love this girl! Heritage Alpine Meadow. Rose gave us and lovely little girl- no name yet 2023 . Rose was an integral part of our herd and one of our original purchases. Always a sweetheart RIP sweet Alpine Rose.

AOA# 3214444DOB: 6/15/201114 yrs
Snowmass Royal Challanger, Caligula, and double Bueno. His med fawn fleece is crimpy, soft, consistent over the blanket and on the legs, neck and head. Exceptionally long staple length. On the small side like his sire, he has a stocky build, full coverage and also inherited the Royal Challanger headpiece. He is all we hoped he would be. 9/20/2015 Sage has four fabulous cria on the ground two males and two females, all are dark fawn and darker than himself and the dam. It was hard to improve on either of the dams he was bred too but he did it, Sage has been only lightly used but will get more females in the future. The only Royal Challanger son breeding in the Northwest, book your breedings now! He is related to many in our herd but we can't wait to breed him with our Running Late kids. Sage is our goto boy for adding density Owned by our daughter Giselle. Unfortunately Sage passed away 9/25/24 we have 2 of his daughters

Description

Very high frequency crimp on this granddaughter of Snowmass Conopa and great granddaughter of Snowmass Quechua. All Snowmass genetics if you care about that. She will make a great foundation female. A beautiful statuesque girl with nice structure to her fleece, I would focus on a longer staple length for her. Conformation is excellent. Unfortunately the shearer ruined her cria fleece with dull blades so we do not have a first year histogram on her, but I have sent in a histogram on her second fleece and fleeces sample on request. Velvet's sire is fawn Conopa son Snowmass Vicuna Gold. Velvet's dam Snowmass Alpine Rose produced a female cria Alpine Melody this year that we will be keeping as replacement for Velvet and her dam. A very nice girl at a reasonable price with definite possibility of color! Pure Snowmass genetics. Auction price is a cash sale no breeding included
