Huacaya, Female, Proven | Medium Fawn
Snowmass Smoke N Silk is a female who has an incredibly powerful pedigree with some of the most influential colored huacayas. She has three notable sires just on her paternal side alone that should hint at the powerfulness, those sires include but are not limited to: Snowmass Conopa XXX, Snowmass XXXtreme (two times) and Snowmass Matrix. If your wondering who the sire of this pedigree is, its the modern rose gray multiple Futurity Champion: Snowmass Smokin. Snowmass Smokin is the product of crossing Futurity Champion Snowmass Conopa's Kahuna (arguably one of the best Conopa sons born carrying Snowmass XXXtremely Scarlet as his dam) and Snowmass Cashmina Gold, a beige Snowmass Matrix daughter and maternal granddaughter of Snowmass XXXtreme via her dam, Snowmass Cashmina). Now to us, that is one hell of a breeding male which is to be expected from Don and Julie Skinners program. When they sold the Snowmass herd and name, Snowmass Smokin was one of the few males they retained and continued breeding. That alone speaks volume. The dam of this lovely female (Smoke N Silk) is Snowmass Conopa's Silk, a Snowmass Conopa XXX daughter and a maternal granddaughter of the amazing Snowmass Invincible. Conopa's Silk is one of the few outcrossed Snowmass females as her dam, Snowmass Invincibly Silky, was a direct daughter of the medium fawn Colorado Mezcal making her unique. Snowmass Smoke N Silk will play a vital role in the Red Granite breeding program for many years to come.Cadence has decided to breed Smoke N Silk to her incredible male, Ironhide Vapor for an ELITE 2026 cria!
