Sire: Snowmass Velvet Touche ARI#
31778664 Light Brown In 2015 we decided the time was right to bring a herdsire of the highest quality into our herd. After much consideration we pulled the trigger and bought half interest (proudly co-owned with Snowmass Alpacas LLC) in Snowmass Velvet Touche (Son of Snowmass Touche (Sire) and Snowmass Royal Splendor (Dam)). We loved him SOOO very much we bought the other half. He is now solely owned by Happy Hounds Alpaca Ranch.

This extremely pre-potent male has gifted us with amazing cria's in every color from White to Rose Grey. He is currently closed to outside breedings but if you want to bring these awesome genetics home please look at our dams pregnant by him, ask about 2015-2017 cria crop sired by him, or bid high for and breeding to him for AOA.

Dam: TGF Lynnea ARI#
32097900 Medium Fawn We purchased her at the 2012 Snowmass Auction. Boy are we glad we did. Phenotypically she is a true-to-type young maiden. She has a compact, well-proportioned frame. Her medium fawn fleece is remarkable in uniformity of micron, character and color and exhibits a super soft handle.
But rest assured, there is a genetic powerhouse lurking underneath her sweet and pretty exterior. . . . Her sire, Snowmass Royal Challanger has proven himself by producing an extraordinary consistency of fineness, color and extensive fine wool coverage from head to toe on his progeny. Lynnea's dam, Lilly of the Valley adds a dimension of greatness to every one of her offspring with any male she has been matched with. Having said all that, she is simply
stunning.

Description
Welcome HOME!!! We regretted selling this boy the moment he left the farm. When he came back up for sale I jumped at the chance to get him back. He will begin his herdsire duties immediately in spring of 2023.
