Mountain Sky Ranch is proud to present Snowmass Matrix Belvedere. Belvedere is a gorgeous beige male with incredible fleece. His fiber is ultra fine and crimp covers his body from head to toe. His mean curvature measures an outstanding 67.2% with only 0.4% of his fibers greater than 30 microns. Equally impressive, his histogram from 2016 is almost identical to his 2010 numbers.

Mountain Sky Ranch is proud to present Snowmass Matrix Belvedere. Belvedere is a gorgeous beige male with incredible fleece. His fiber is ultra fine and crimp covers his body from head to toe. His mean curvature measures an outstanding 67.2% with only 0.4% of his fibers greater than 30 microns. Equally impressive, his histogram from 2016 is almost identical to his 2010 numbers. His sire is Snowmass Matrix, the highest selling alpaca at auction and producer of many winning progeny. His dam, Snowmass Bright Stars, is a multiple Produce of Dam winner who is consistently producing show winning cria.
UPDATE: Snowmass Matrix Belvedere does it again, winning Judge's Choice at the 2016 CABA Fleece show. He also brought home the Spirit of the Industry award at both GWAS and CABA in 2016. Be watching for his amazing cria at the 2017 shows. Belvedere is awarded the Judge's Choice at the 2014 AOA National & World Fleece Show! This boy's fleece just keeps getting better and better. Belvedere also won the Light Halter Color Championship AND the Light Fleece Reserve Color Championship at the 2013 AOBA National Show. Belvedere began his show career with a second place finish in a very competitive class at the 2010 GWAS at only 7 months of age. As he has aged, he is consistently winning in the show ring with multiple show championships to his name, including the 2011 GWAS Color Champion as a yearling. Belvedere has several crias on the ground now and they are everything we could hope for. They are producing fleeces that are fine and bright. Many of them are colored. Several have already won banners of their own. We are excited about the future for this proven herd sire. Rave reviews of his offspring's fleeces at the 2018 Commercial Sort - brightest fleeces seen with exceptional fineness! For more info visit

Stunning fleece on a power packed compact body. He demonstrated this with his Color Champion win at the 2019 AOA National Fleece Show. He has proven his ability to produce black with his blue-black boy out of our Che Bella! Sadly we cannot repeat this breeding as we lost our girl suddenly this year. But we are holding Concerto close to our vest to see if we have a contender for our herdsire row. But not one to put all our eggs in one basket, Guinness's breeding list was full this year and ...

But we are holding Concerto close to our vest to see if we have a contender for our herdsire row. But not one to put all our eggs in one basket, Guinness's breeding list was full this year and he is our most bred stud in the breeding plan! He is hot stuff and he knows it, with his macho attitude!
Details
FOUNDATION DAM - NOT FOR SALE
Wow, this girl is a looker. And born running practically -- running circles literally around her dam as she nursed for the first time. Her white fiber is bright, fine, very long, and crimpy!
Her first cria a male, Griffon, by our multiple champion Black Maelstrom has sold. We just cannot keep them all, though he had fantastic fiber!
She was then bred to our multiple SOI/JOC male Smokejumper for her next beauty, a vibrant red brown girl who is the spitting image of her sire (now deceased) in color and her luxuriously soft and dense fiber. Boy, does Danica really produce in the color and fiber! We are definitely keeping Firestarter in our program. Firestarter is making her own special crias for us now.
Her crias are really just exceptional! For 2021, Danica produced a beautiful medium brown girl sired by our Axios. This girl, whom we named Oraine, is extremely nice, as evidenced by her juvenile show career. We love Oraine, but to really show off Danica, we sold her in the 2023 Amber Autumn Auction. This girl is often thought of and missed though we are excited about her producing well for her new owners.
Danica produced another beautiful girl, a MB from our black champion, Stradivarius. Marsella is a looker, too! We cannot wait to see her develop as we currently have her retained in our program.
This year, Danica made us a boy-- but BOY, OH BOY, is this boy nice! We love his looks and his fiber and have bestowed him the name Aventador. We have plans for this boy, for sure!
