Alaska possesses both the dun factor gene (grullo) and the roan gene (blue roan), and is technically both a blue roan and grullo. In combination, she is best referred to as a "grullo roan," though AQHA has her registered as a grullo. Most of the time, she looks more blue roan than grullo roan.

Pedigree

In the pedigree below, please note that these bloodlines primarily have earned accomplishments outside of AQHA shows (and so don't register many points earned).  These horses have performed/earned in cutting associations, rodeo, team roping associations, and on the ranch.  While you might not find many AQHA points here, you WILL find excellent working, roping, cutting, and team penning horses!
