Samaca is really good about his feet and legs. Even while nursing. His mom loves a good butt scratch too! This whole line loves water and butt scratches.

This is the DREAM cross. Smart, beautiful, mellow, easy to work with and good conformation with a strong rear end. A super short classic coat to boot! Don't take our word for it, talk to the happy owners of his siblings.
Samaca is the seventh of our tried and true JNK x JNK bred parents. The sire is our ILR SD/UAP Halter Champion classic pack male, JNK Cayetano. Cayetano has completed several legs of his PLTA advanced packers certifications and is a complex registered therapy llama with Pet Partners. He has also won over 30 grand champions in halter in real shows. Cay is a double Halter Best of Show winner to boot! At the 2022 March Madness Show that is the largest in the country, he not only won the Rookie class but was double Grand Champion Classic/Light Wool Male. Cay is an amazing packer and therapy llama too! We use him to volunteer in end stage hospice therapy work. Most recently, he has started to drive as well!
Cayetano is by a PLTA Master Packer (MPL Sky Rocket) and out of one of our very best producing classic females (Rocky Mountain Sunshine). Grandma produced many of our keeper herd animals and was a show and regional champion winner in halter. Her sire (great grandsire to this baby) was the great, Rocky Mountain Jester who was a packer, driver and all around llama. Great grandma, Bett's Supaya lived to be 24 and was upright and still going strong until the end.
Kalosi is a keeper in our herd and by our supreme producing pack male, MPL Anders Tobias. Toby had the strongest rear end we have ever seen on a pack llama. He also has the best work ethic and stamina of any llama we have seen besides Isle Eagle (our foundation woolly herdsire). In addition to being an ALSA Halter Champion, he was a PLTA Master Packer. Toby lived to be a healthy 25 years old and was sound until the day he died, even siring a baby at age 24! Kalosi is an absolute sweetheart and loves a good hug and butt scratch from you! She also loves water and dances in the hose when offered the opportunity. We showed Kalosi a few times and she did really well winning Halter Grands and Bred and Owned. Kalosi has easy births and loads of milk.
Arriving with a birth weight at 38.4 lbs, this male was up and nursing immediately. The first week after his birth, he gained 1.5 lbs a day! His 2016 full brother was 38lbs and is now in Colorado hiking. The 2017 full brother is part of the Redwood Llamas breeding/packing program in Colorado. The 2019 female from this cross is in Washington and is being used for packing, showing and therapy work. She is already almost a finished halter champion! The 2020 sibling is in Colorado and will be packing when of age. The 2021 sibling will be packing, showing and doing therapy work. The 2022 sibling is being used in a day hike program and will be overnight packing when he is old enough.
This young male is from some of the longtime packing greats that are from long established breeding programs. The owners of his previous siblings absolutely love this cross. They are all easy going, correct, steady on the trail and therapy llama sweet. Several are already complex registered therapy llamas like their dad. Many are winning in halter and performance too! This is a really good cross for the ultimate pack/therapy/show llama. They literally come out of the womb loving water too!
Name Origin- The Neflix documentary on the Andes has an episode called La Rioja Argentina, an oasis in Peru and Bolivia. Samaca is a basin oasis in the coastal desert of Peru.

JNK Sulu's Huxley MT. x JNK Tobias's Caldera
DOB 5/30/23
***May Be Available, Inquire***
A beautiful male from all of our strongest classic lines and some influence from the Redwood llamas packing herd. The third offspring of our CTL Sulu son JNK Sulu's Huxley MT. With the pack market being saturated with the same common overused lines, this young male has so much potential for his genetic contributions. In addition, his mother, full sister, two uncles and two aunts are all registered therapy llamas with Pet Partners. Chil's dam and great grandfather are/were accomplished driving llamas.
Chil's dam JNK Tobias's Caldera is a many times performance and halter champion. She is also the 2011 International Gathering of Friends Reserve Champion Classic Female. That year she dominated the national top 10 list for performance (PR, Pack & Obstacle). Dara is an excellent driver and packer as well. The icing on the cake is the fact that she is a Complex Registered Therapy Llama with Pet Partners as well.
Huxley (Chil's sire) is a mellow classic male that is Pet Partners complex registered for therapy work with two handlers. Huxley's pedigree is llama royalty in the packing world and his dam came from the famed commercial packing operation Redwood Llamas in Colorado. His maternal grandsire is Clancy who won nearly every professional running event with llamas. To the point that it was written up in Sports Illustrated. Additionally, his maternal great grandsire is the famous Oliver Twists.
CTL Sulu was one of the kindest and calmest llamas you could ever meet. As the grandsire of Chil, he should have his steady and sweet attitude. Sulu was a very reliable commercial packer in Wyoming prior to coming to our farm. The size, bone and substance of Sulu was a nice addition to our current packing stock.
Grandsire Anders Tobias was the first of our classic breeding program. We acquired Toby as a finished packer that had already achieved Master Packer status with PLTA. Toby was also used for hunting and extensive pack trips. There is no other llama in the packing world with the work ethic, stamina, athleticism and structure that Toby had. We walked Toby into the showring for the first time at age 12. That day he walked out with two Grand Champions and this was in the day when the classes had much woollier animals mixed with classics. Over the years we continued to show Toby and earned many grands in halter and performance with him and eventually he got his ALSA Halter Championship. He was the ONLY classic male that is an ALSA Halter Champion and PLTA Master Packer. At age 25.5, Toby was still active, sound and breeding till the day he died! A testament to his genetics and overall strength. We have retained three of his daughters for use in our program. Many offspring are registered therapy llamas with Pet Partners and even grand offspring are now registered as well. Two offspring are driving in cart and there are many many packers sired by Toby.
Rocky Mountain Sunshine was the first of our classic females we added to breed to Toby. Her overall structure and solid movement made her a great match with Toby. We kept three of her offspring in our herd. All of them are Complex Registered Therapy Llamas with Pet Partners. They are also being used for showing, packing and breeding in our program. JNK Cayetano (by MPL Sky Rocket) is our main classic herdsire now and has many grand champions in halter (Finished ILR Halter Champion). Sunshine was the 2009 NW Regional Highpoint Classic Female and won many champions while we showed her. Her offspring are among some of our very favorites we own and work with. Sunshine's sire Rocky Mountain Jester was one of the very first all around llamas that drove, packed and was shown. She originally came from the Rocky Mountain herd owned by the famed Bobra Goldsmith.
Chil should be a fabulous all around packer, driver, therapy and show llama for someone. He has the genetics to do these things easily! His full sister is a complex registered therapy llama as are his parents. The 3/4 sibling to this guy is driving and doing therapy work as well. Want a llama with a proven track record of doing it all?

Origin of his Name: The Chilkat Range is a mountain range in Haines Borough and the Hoonah-Angoon Census Area in the U.S. state of Alaska,[1] west of the city of Juneau. The Chilkat Range is one of the principal divisors between Haines Borough and Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve. It also separates Chilkat Inlet and Lynn Canal from Muir Inlet in Glacier Bay. The northern boundary is generally considered to be the Klehini River. The unnamed ice field in the range also feeds many glaciers including the Davidson and Rainbow Glaciers. It was named Chilkat Mountains in 1879 by the USGS for the Chilkat subdivision of the Tlingit People. These mountains were renamed as the Chilkat Range in 1891.

Vercelli has heavy bone and dense fiber. He also has presence to burn with long legs. There are many many halter, performance and fleece winners in this pedigree. Additionally, many Pet Partners registered therapy llamas too! Vercelli has a royal pedigree of many of the industry greats.
He is by our senior woolly herdsire Marisco. Marisco is an ALSA & ILR Halter Champion, many times Best of Show Male and Complex Registered Therapy Llama with Pet Partners (since 2006). His offspring are all over the country and have won top honors in halter and performance. In addition, he has many offspring that are registered for therapy work! Marisco is a kind soul in and out of the showring. In 2018, he won Double Best of Show and Western Region Overall Champion Male at age 17. In 2019 he was Double Grand Champion Moderate Heavy Wool Male at age 18! We use him to do hospice work and other therapy visits in addition to breeding.
The dam of of this woolly beauty is our JNK Huaycool's Rosabella. Born on our farm, Rosabella is one of our most successful show, performance and therapy llamas we have produced. She is an ALSA and ILR Halter Champion and ILR Performance Champion. She is a Complex Registered Therapy Llama with Pet Partners as well. Rosabella is one of the sweetest and kindest llamas we own besides Marisco. Her nickname is "The dog" because of her puppy dog friendly attitude. Rosabella's first three full sibling sons by Marisco all won in halter at their first shows. The first born full sibling Rustamone is an ILR Halter Champion. This cross has won fleece awards too!
Paternal grandsire is the famous *Sipan. Imported in 1997, he went on to become an ALSA Halter Champion, ALSA Get of Sire ROM and two time ALSA National Champion in halter. The second time at age sixteen. Shown and imported by Hinterland Llamas.
Maternal grandsire is Huaycool (*Huaycho x *Heylee) who was purchased at the Hinterland dispersal in 2010 for use on our Eagle and Marisco daughters. Huaycool was an ALSA Halter ROM & Champion and producer of numerous halter and performance winners. He also produced many Pet Partners Registered Therapy Llamas and was so gentle a two year old could lead him.
The maternal Grandmother to this female was our very best producing woolly female Bros Normandie. Normandie (formerly owned by Bauernheim Llamas) created halter and performance champions every time she gave birth. She also made three Pet Partners Complex Registered Therapy Llamas too! Normandie was a Legend's Rammas granddaughter, which is the same line that gave us Isle Eagle (the top show llama of all time). Her sire was an English import named *Union Jack. Normandie's Produce of Dam and Production Pair (2 offspring from the same dam) entries won nearly every time they were entered. Her descendants have won top honors in fleece as well. Normandie is one of only a handful of ILR Dam of Distinction females too!
*El Fuerte is this male's full Peruvian great grandsire. After researching, we realized that in a short production, he has produced more winning llama descendants than any other line in history. An ALSA National Get of Sire Champion and ALSA Get of Sire Champion and ROM recipient. One of Hinterland's most prepotent and recognized lines.
How could anybody go wrong with a pedigree this strong? He has numerous siblings that are halter, fleece, performance winners and many registered therapy llamas! Ascari his 2022 full brother has already won in halter and fleece at his first show at only age 5 months. He is also already a complex registered therapy llama with two different handlers.
Name Origin: Vercelli, is a city and comune of 46,552 inhabitants in the Province of Vercelli, Piedmont, northern Italy. One of the oldest urban sites in northern Italy, it was founded, according to most historians, around 600 BC.

Toviah's second baby and Huxley's fourth. One of the few JNK x JNK breeding crosses as well. We owned all the grandparents in this pairing and showed 3/4 of them. Sparkle is special and completely unreleated to most of the overused packing lines.
Sparkle's sire Huxley is a mellow classic male that is Pet Partners complex registered for therapy work with two handlers. Huxley's pedigree is llama royalty in the packing world and his dam came from the famed commercial packing operation Redwood Llamas in Colorado. His maternal grandsire is Clancy who won nearly every professional running event with llamas. To the point that it was written up in Sports Illustrated. Additionally, his maternal great grandsire is the famous Oliver Twists.
JNK Tobias's Toviah is one of our keeper classic Toby daughters and the dam of Sparkle. We picked a good one to keep as Toviah has won nearly every halter class she has been entered in. Toviah is a finished ILR Halter Championship. Toviah ended 2019 as Best in Show Female for the OFFF & Western Championship Show. She also was OFFF & WCS Best in Show Fleece On. Would you believe that Toviah has won Best of Show Fleece On twice? An unheard of feat for a classic llama!
CTL Sulu was one of the kindest and calmest llamas you could ever meet. As the grandsire of this young female, she should have his steady and sweet attitude. Sulu was a very reliable commercial packer in Wyoming prior to coming to our farm. The size, bone and substance of Sulu was a nice addition to our current packing stock.

Many offspring are registered therapy llamas with Pet Partners and even grand offspring are now registered as well. Two offspring are driving in cart and there are many many packers sired by Toby.
Grandmother Rocky Mountain Inca's Legacy Lady was the 2007 ALSA National Reserve Grand Champion Light Wool Female. Her half brother by the same dam was also National Reserve that year. Legacy was an ALSA Halter Champion and an ILR finished Halter Champion. This female was a very nice representation of a classic pack llama. We cherry picked her out of a herd of 140 llamas!
The 2021 full sister (JNK Huxley's Zaltana) to Sparkle won five Grand Champions in halter at her first shows! Since then she has been winning in GA for her new owners and they love her.
Name Origin: When this female was born, we were in Coeur d'Alene Idaho driving llamas for the 4th of July. We were very near the 4th of July Summit, which seems fitting to name this beautiful young female after that!

A beautiful and short coated classic too from elite all around packers, drivers, show and classic llamas!
Vernazza's dam Razz, is a 3rd generation packer line female. Our friends Mark and Lori were no longer breeding and at almost age 14 they sold her to us. We were all unsure what that would look like breeding a 14 year old maiden. To our delight she settled within the month and into her new life here at JNK. Everyone that comes to our farm comments on how beautiful Razz is and we agree. As a bonus, she was loved and handled making her so nice to deal with. Razz has packed, ties out and is easy to deal with. She comes from a long line of proven packers, drivers and all around nice classic llamas. We dragged Razz out to her first show at age 15.5 and she pulled a grand in classic female class with a full division!
Cayetano is by a PLTA Master Packer (MPL Sky Rocket) and out of one of our very best producing classic females (Rocky Mountain Sunshine). Grandma produced many of our keeper herd animals and was a show and regional champion winner in halter. Her sire (great grandsire to this baby) was the great, Rocky Mountain Jester who was a packer, driver and all around llama. Great grandma, Bett's Supaya lived to be 24 and was upright and still going strong until the end. Supaya hailed from some of the Redwood Llamas original pack lines. Cayetano is a finished ILR Halter Champion with many grands to his name! He is also a proven and amazing pack llama that does therapy work in end stage hospice. Now, he is driving as well.
Grandsire Robbie D was on our list of lines we wanted to add. He resided in the Lolo Creek herd pack program in Montana and was a proven packer. Some of his offspring reside in other pack programs around the country. Grand dam Boogie Woogie was a proven packer and driver as well. Great grand dam was a packer and driver as well. The great grandsire to this baby was Jim Logan's driving/halter/performance llama Apollo One. One of the original ALSA Champions. Suffice to say, the dam side of this female is a long line of proven working llamas!
This is a genetic powerhouse for anyone who does cool things with llamas. Her 2022 big sister Vezzie is turning out to be a very cool and beautiful girl too! Vezzie won a reserve grand in halter and placed well in novice performance at her first show.

Her sire (great grandsire to this baby) was the great, Rocky Mountain Jester who was a packer, driver and all around llama. Great grandma, Bett's Supaya lived to be 24 and was upright and still going strong until the end. Supaya hailed from some of the Redwood Llamas original pack lines. Cayetano is a finished ILR Halter Champion with many grands to his name! He is also a proven and amazing pack llama that does therapy work in end stage hospice. Now, he is driving as well.
Grandsire Robbie D was on our list of lines we wanted to add. He resided in the Lolo Creek herd pack program in Montana and was a proven packer. Some of his offspring reside in other pack programs around the country. Grand dam Boogie Woogie was a proven packer and driver as well. Great grand dam was a packer and driver as well. The great grandsire to this baby was Jim Logan's driving/halter/performance llama Apollo One. One of the original ALSA Champions. Suffice to say, the dam side of this female is a long line of proven working llamas!
This is a genetic powerhouse for anyone who does cool things with llamas. Her 2022 big sister Vezzie is turning out to be a very cool and beautiful girl too! Vezzie won a reserve grand in halter and placed well in novice performance at her first show.
