A Starks couple believes that the alpacas will be a draw to their proposed wilderness campsites at their 40-acre property. The youngest alpaca, Chance, at center, is 1-year-old and is working on halter-training. The training is to allow future guests to be around the animals and take them for walks.

Kendall Hanna and Marie Ring of Sandy River Alpacas LLC own 40 acres of property in Starks. The property includes 1,600 feet of private river frontage, where the pair plan to build three glamping sites.
