Mountain Sky Ranch is excited to announce the purchase of Snowmass Matrix from Double "O" Good Alpacas. Snowmass Matrix is truly one in a million. He is the finest fleeced, highest curvature son of Snowmass Quechua standing in the world. This amazing stud won Reserve Herdsire of the Year for both LIght and Dark in 2008 with only 11 entries! In 2009 he won the Dark Herdsire of the Year and Light Reserve Herdsire. And in 2010 he repeated as Dark Reserve Herdsire of the Year. The Matrix genetics added to the Mountain Sky Ranch breeding program will be priceless. Combined with the reserve stud females residing here, Matrix will put our alpacas to the top of the elite animals found anywhere in the world. Matrix is a compact, robust and well proportioned stud. He has a fleece that extends its superior qualities over his entire frame. Snowmass Alpacas describes his fleece as a Merino x Vicuna style of crimp. He has a bit more organization in the expression of crimp than a true vicuna but a very high frequency of crimp indicative in the vicuna qualities. Most importantly, this stud exhibits an extreme fineness, brightness and consistency of fineness which is seen in the extension into extremities. He has held these qualities as he has aged which is exactly what we are looking for and breeding for. Matrix's breedings are being offered for a limited time at a unheard of price as a celebration of this purchase. Once these limited number of breedings are gone, he will be restricted to our clients only! Matrix is proudly co-owned with Irish Meadows.

Priestess was purchased to instantly go into our foundation herd. 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
