Sells with a light brown female out of Poseidon's Isaac and a fantastic silver yearling male out of Snowmass Enlightenment!! He was one of our first crias out of "E", whose crias at Snowmass were barely old enough to show yet one took the Gray Reserve at the Futurity!!
With Rosie's excellent conformation, very uniform fleece and mellow temperament, her 2010 cria Dante is a "keeper" and is definitely show/herdsire quality, placing 5th of 15 a 2011 GWAS.
Rosie's dam was one of the last Peruvian imports into the USA, meaning they were more heavily screened for good conformation and fleece than any previous import. The sire is Achilles' Ozymandias, a silver gray Blue Ribbon winner with a steady production record of grays.
Dante, Rosie's 2010 silver gray cria, doubled his birth weight in less than 5 weeks (40.2 lbs), showing his dam's milk production and mothering skills. An easy birther and plentiful milker, Rosie is the kind of female that you want to have in

This outstanding rose gray male took Blue and Reserve at AOBA 2009 at the age of 54 months!! This followed right on the heels of his Championship at the 2009 Kentucky Classic. To quote the breeder/former owner: If you could put all the best performing, most unique blend of genetics into one Stud for the most advanced color breeding program...that's exactly what Snowmass did and the result is nothing short of magnificent!!
It starts with his sire, Snowmass XXXtreme, a brown male out of the renowned Snowmass Royal Rose, a Hemingway son. Pair that with a MSG female, Snowmass Silver Star, out of Snowmass Casanova, a Bueno son, and Sir Winston's Sunstar from the revered Australian breeding program of Roger Haldane.
Snowmass Alpacas' entire gray genetic program is in this unbelievable Gray stud. To quote Julie and Don Skinner: If we were to have a Royal grey line of alpacas, Enlightenment is what it would take to get us there!!
His first crias arrived at Snowmass in t
