“Snowmass Pure Passion is the most magnificent light fawn Matrix son Snowmass Alpacas has ever produced.” ~ Snowmass Alpacas LLC. Snowmass Alpacas explained that Snowmass Pure Passion represented 30 years of passion in breeding for the perfect-colored fleece on the most beautiful-bodied alpaca. When Pure Passion was born, they stated that he was one that you could not take your eyes off. His fleece is extraordinarily fine, and gloriously bright, showing consistency of excellence from top to bottom as his pedigree would predict and his histograms reflect. Snowmass Pure Passion was first shown in 2009 at AOBA Nationals where he was awarded 1st place as well as Champion. Making him a 4th generation champion! In 2010, he took a 2nd to his brother Snowmass Matrix Elite in two shows, International Alpaca Odyssey and the Futurity, with the judges stating that Matrix Elite was denser but Pure Passion finer. Correctly so, as you see in his 5th fleece which measures 17.0 AFD. Snowmass Alpacas further stated, "If you asked us to show you what we think an ideal alpaca looks like, we would take you to the pasture to see Snowmass Pure Passion." “Pure Passion is a spectacular fawn herdsire who maintains a superb fine, uniformed fleece. I can’t wait to see what this male puts on the ground.” ~ AOA Judge Kevin O’Leary. 7X BLUE Ribbons for GET of SIRE - This stud will bring success to every aspect of your breeding program!

Congratulations & many thanks to Natty West Alpacas for their purchase of Divine Inspiration at our inaugural ACE's Loaded Auction! We cannot say enough how much we admire this male & how fortunate we were to count him among our most esteemed herdsires at ACE. He really does have it all! Everyone who touches Divine loves his density! One judge likened it to memory foam. This outstanding male has two traits with Top 5% EPDs, 3 in the Top 10%, 1 in the top 15%, & 1 in the top 25% for 2023. Divine Inspiration possesses incredible Snowmass genetics on both sides of his family tree! He is the son of Snowmass Divine Love, the Judge's Choice recipient at the 2013 Futurity, & the High-Selling Huacaya Alpaca at the 2017 Futurity Auction. At 7 years of age, he is still boasting an 18.4 micron! Divine Love has a VERY dense fleece that is exceptionally fine just like his sire. He has a solid conformation with great bone density & a great phenotype. Divine Inspiration's maternal grandsire is none other than 8X champion, Snowmass Matrix, winner of Reserve Herdsire of the Year for Light AND Color in 2008, as well as Color Herdsire of the Year & Light Reserve Herdsire of the Year again in 2009! His pedigree is filled with top herdsires such as Snowmass ConopaXX, Snowmass Infinity, Royal Fawn, Hemingway, Elite, Legacy, Accoyocusani, and more. Divine himself carries a gorgeous phenotype. His large male with a solid frame, gorgeous head, with extreme head & leg coverage, & a very macho appearance are very impressive. He has straight legs, great bone, & a correct bite. His fleece is just as impressive. A stated, his fleece is DENSE! It is also very bright. His secondary fibers are very fine with a few primary fibers & very consistent micron & color. His handle once inside his fiber is Divine. He has great staples with some micro bundling as well. His fleece at 5.5 years of age, still displays these traits. The crimp style is very consistent across the blanket. It's a high frequency, highly aligned crimp. Feeling the fleece, the crimp stands out as little ridges that you can feel. All those Snowmass genetics lined up to create this suburb herdsire. Divine Inspiration had not been shown by his previous owners, at five years old, we took this breeding male on the road. We were thrilled at his calm temperament & ease to handle in a new environment. He was even hugged by multiple children at one time with no withdraw reflex. When it came time to show, he wowed us by receiving 9 banners, 7 Color Champions, in his show season as a five year old! We were ecstatic as he earned 3 Judge’s Choice awards. The judges consistently commented on his extreme density, fineness for his age, strong & correct frame, great head, & the style his fleece was maintaining. Divine Inspiration is a 4th generation champion. This solid multi-champion male has stunning cria on the ground (in almost every color including true black, rose grey, & roan)! Genotype: Ee Aa
