Summit is our veteran packer, carrying the most versatile experience over everyone on the team.  He has been a staple of our herd and almost all of our animals have been trained by following Summit’s lead. Not only is he a very experienced backcountry packer, but he has also spent some time in front of a llama cart. 

Patches is quite the success story.  He was rescued from a wildfire near Redding, CA at a young age.  The wildfire left him with burnt patches of wool, hence his name.    The dramatic experience left him extremely edgy early on, but over time he has become one of our best packers and my personal favorite.  He is everything you want in a packer and the word “quit” is not a part of his vocabulary.  When the going gets tough, Patches is a great llama to have in your string.  

Mayven is everything one would want in a multi-purpose female.  She is an incredible packer and has the perfect confirmation and stature for being a big part of our breeding program.  She is an extremely sweet girl who is always ready to please and give it her best.  Her pedigree carries some incredible genetics and we’re really excited to see some of her offspring in the years to come.  

Duke is everything you would ever want in a Ccara llama.  He will play a huge part in spearheading our breeding program.  From confirmation to attitude, he truly is a packer’s dream.  He has part of his father’s heavy bone structure but holds an extremely tall and athletic build that suits him very well in the backcountry.  It’s funny to watch him play with his pasture mates because he has the build that could throttle his friends in a wrestling match, but he’s so nice that he just lets the others win.  

Eddie is the big brother of the group.  He’s always calm, cool and collected while watching over his friends play rambunctiously in the pasture.  The first time we put a saddle on him he looked like he had done it 100 times.  Nothing seems to phase Eddie and he loves to work.  One of the most reliable llamas in the group with everything you would want in a commercial packer.   

Clark is one of our tallest boys with a very athletic build.  He has the personality of his grandpa Nicholas Cage, who was an awesome individual.  When Clark was just a weanling, he got a bad cut between his toes and we were worried it would affect his packing ability, but after months of healing and treatment, he made and full recovery and is going to be an essential member of our pack string and breeding program for years to come. He’s also a ladies’ man.  If the girls are around, you can always find Clark strutting his stuff and showing off his grand stature. 

Luna is a half-sister to Mayven and they share a lot of the same traits.  She is not afraid to go the extra distance and give it her all. Even at her young age she is mellow, calm and is a joy to have in the string. She loves the water and would walk the creek if you let her.  Oh, and we can’t forget to mention that she loves to eat and her trail snacks!   

Annabelle is one of the tallest llamas on the ranch.   She has a very calm and loving demeanor as well as a lean and athletic build that suits her awesome trail stride for covering ground in a hurry.  She has very strong Ccara bloodlines in her pedigree with Commander Spock on her sire’s side and Canad on her dam’s side.    

Alice is our youngest girl in training and is best buds with Annabelle.  Alice has Jordan White Socks, Black Thunder and Canad in her lines and it is already starting to show.  Her sire is one of the tallest Ccara’s in North America, standing at 53″ at the withers. We’re excited to see her transform into the packer we know she can be.  

Bow reminds me of a team running back.  When it is playtime in the pasture, he’s always the one showing off how fast he can run and how high he can jump.  He has a very friendly and charismatic personality that makes for a great trail partner. 

Blue is one of the most athletic llamas we have at the ranch.  He has a heart of gold and embodies everything you would want in a packer.  When he was just a little guy, he was an escape artist who always found an unorthodox way to escape the pasture.   He has played an essential part in our pack string and never gives up.
