NeverSummer's Magic Flight was standing stud in the Pacific NW for a limited time but has now returned home to Colorado. ATV was honored to have this lovely male on our ranch this summer for breedings to our top females. We look forward to next year's offspring from him. Carol Collins comments, "He recently received the Reserve Color Champion Fleece at the 2013 AOBA Nationals in a highly competitive group of greys. His score had tied with the CC and the tie-breaker was only a single point! When folks walked by Magic''s fleece (juvie) in our display at Nationals it stopped them in their tracks. It is stunning. SO silver. Absolutely luminous. Long locks. I can't wait to spin it up! .... And check out his fiber stats. They haven't budged between his yearling and two-year old samples. Magic Flight was penciled in as a future herdsire for us - to breed to our .38 Special daughters. Its now only that we've sold our entire herd of females that we're offering him for sale. Our good friend, Susan Mikulecky, was kind enough to let us lease her fabulous dam, Beatriz, to breed to Snowmass Enlightenment. "Magic" was the result. We were thrilled to get such a handsome, CMSG male cria that wasn't related to any of our girls. Beatriz is also the dam of two-time (!) National's Grey Champion "Annual's Bea-2 Bomber". She has produced nothing but excellence and all 8 of her offspring have been "Banner Winners"! Magic continues to show against super tough competition. But he's consistently at the top of his classes, losing out only to Champions."

ESTATES SHALIMAR Four centuries ago, in India, Emperor Shah Jahan fell hopelessly in love with Princess Mumtaz Mahal. He dedicated the Taj Mahal to her and had the elegant Gardens of Shalimar built for her as well. The Shalimar Gardens were laid out as a Persian paradise garden intended to create a representation of an earthly utopia in which humans co-exist in perfect harmony with all elements of nature. This enchanting tale was the inspiration of our Estates Shalimar. Shalimar is a gorgeous medium fawn male with a clean blanket. He has dense, fine fleece with a soft handle. Shalimar ranked in the Top 10% EPD in 2021! Shalimar has two amazing show animals as parents. His sire is none other than 7x Champion Crescent Moon’s Simtustus, a medium fawn male from two grey parents and WOW fleece! Even though he is a fawn, Simtustus contributes significant grey genetics to his offspring, along with fineness and advanced fleece characteristics. Shalimar's dam, Snowmass Starz Sunrise is a 2x Blue Ribbon Produce of Dam Winner! She is the daughter of multi-champion Snowmass Conopa XXX, who took a first place in the AOBA World Fleece Show, and now resides Canada. Her dam, Snowmass Sizlin Starz, is a blue-ribbon daughter of Snowmass 'Sizlin Hot' (now standing in England as a leading genetic line for fine fleece improvement, which has been proven in his line 5 generations strong!) Her maternal grandsire, 5Peruvian Red Hot, is one of the finest and most consistent color studs Snowmass has ever produced. MULTPLE BLUE-RIBBON WINNER AND CHAMPION PRODUCER! Shalimar won first place at the 2018 CABA Classic show! At the 2018 Alpacapalooza show, Jude Anderson awarded Shalimar another Blue Ribbon, then he and his sister (Estates Passion's New Fallen Snow) earned their dam (Snowmass Starz Sunrise) the Blue Ribbon for Produce of Dam! Shalimar also placed 2nd at the 2015 West Coast Alpaca Show (where the 1st Place winner was also the Reserve Champion), He also received a 2nd place ribbon from the 2015 Northwest Alpaca Showcase and third (out of a class of 10) at the 2016 CABA Classic. We are excited to announce that judge Wade Gease awarded his son, King Kamehameha II, First Place & Reserve Champion at the 2023 VAOBA Expo. He also won First Place at the 2023 Buckeye Alpaca Fall Fest Walking Fleece show. He had previously brought home several other ribbons while on our 2023 show string. King brought home another Blue Ribbon at the 2024 TxOLAN Bluebonnet Stakes.
