Ascent's latest accomplishment is that he was name by the Georgia Alpaca Association as the "2012 Brown Huacaya Male Alpaca of the Year", at the Royal Alpaca Challenge.

Ascent's final show was at the 2012 National's - where our boy at 6 years old took both Blue and Res. Champion!!! Judge Kevin O'Leary's comments:
"At 6 years old, he is the finest of all 6. It is amazing how is is able to retain his fineness for so long. He has great architecture, great poise and perfect uniformity and consistency. He is indisputable my first choice."

For the Championship Judge O'Leary stated:
"He is amazing at 6 years old and finer than the others younger ones. He would have taken color champion if he wasn't so dusty....JOKE! He has presence, poise and character."

Ascent started his show career with 5 blue ribbons & a banner in his first five shows:

2007 North American Alpaca Show
Judge Vandenbosch commented "soft handle, nice character, good density, perfect conformation.

2007 MAPACA Jubilee
Judge McCloud said: Ascent had good overall size development for his age and considerable testicular development. She appreciated his strong frame and correctness & that he was "packing lots of fleece with impressive staple, even character and fineness"

Ascent took another blue! He bested a big class at Empire where Judge Timmerman said "I was impressed by all aspects of this boy, he is put together very well, perfect form, proportions are correct, substance of bone, bite, a stunning male with stunning fleece carrying softness, brightness, excellent crimp and excellent length of staple, very even fleece characteristics across the body."

Ascent was awarded a blue at VT. He was in VERY close consideration for the reserve championship. Judge Burhman commented that she wished she could have given two reserves because he is such a nice male".

Ascent won his 5th blue in 5 tries at the 2007 NJ show and topped off the year with a R Color Championship! Judge Barboza-"well packaged, flawless conformation, nice combination of staple length, density and uniform character throughout his fleece.
At almost 4 yrs old & the oldest alpaca in the show, Ascent won his 6th blue ribbon at the Southern Select Show 2010!
At 5.5+ years old, Ascent is still rising. At RAC - Level 3 class of 4, he took his 7th Blue and Color Championship, in December he took his 8th Blue at VAOBA - Level 4, a class of 6. In February 2012...just 3 months shy of his sixth birthday, he took his 9th Blue at CABO - Level 4 A Class of 6!!!
And now in March 2012 Ascent at 5 years and 10 months ol
