About Elderwood's Polar Wind

Windy was rightly named because she has blown us away!

Elderwood’s Polar Wind was the YOUNGEST alpaca at the 2025 AOA National Show - barely squeezing in. We never expected her to do so well freshly weaned with a minimal amount of fleece growth for being cria shorn in October of 2024. Her pleasing phenotype and beautiful fleece characteristics placed her 2nd in halter out of a class of 11. She’s also officially the 2025 National Reserve Champion for Walking Fleece in the fawn group - such an exciting achievement for her debut show! Although she didn’t win best head, she was one of the 5 finalists pulled up out of 26 animals - a huge accomplishment for such a young girl!

Windy’s sire, Blizzard, is an elite powerhouse when it comes to herdsire expectations. His exceptional confirmation and fleece characteristics have placed him at the top throughout his show career. His accolades include a Judge's Choice, Best Crimp Award, Get of Sire, 15 banners, and 28 first place ribbons! He sports an ultra-dense, bright white fleece, and his massive bone and exemplary fiber coverage add to his macho appearance.

Her dam, KVR's Spotometer, is an exceptional example of what we all hope for in a pinto - we were actually hoping Windy would have some spots. Spot is sired by the elite MFI Peruvian Tachometer, a multi-champion pinto male sired by 7x banner winner and multiple champion producer, Cactus Jack. Spot’s dam, MFI Singularly Justified, is a gorgeous, champion producing light fawn female.

It's no wonder Windy turned out to be such a nice girl backed by these genetics! We are so proud of her and can’t wait to see what her future holds.
