She has extremely powerful genetics behind her with names like Snowmass Incaaccoyo Star, Snowmaster, Accoyocusani Legacyena, Snowmass Accoyocusani, Augusto, Legacy, and Don Julio. Along with those genetics Priestess at her age is keeping her fineness and uniformity, has correct conformation and bite, and is in the top 1% of EPD's for fleece weight. Most importantly Priestess passes her positive fiber traits onto her crias resulting in show winning offspring. Priestess also has a very impressive show record of her own with one Judge's Choice, three Championships (one of them being at the Futurity), and numerous blue ribbons. Priestess is also the mother of our new outstanding herdsire ELK Matrix's Macho Camacho! Passed Away 1/12/2021
