The Olympic Golden Crested Chipmunk



This chipmunk is only found in the Olympic National Forest of the Washington Peninsula. They are distinct in that their stripes start on their nose and continue all the way down to the base of their tail.

I met this chipmunk while on a journey to the Deer Park campsite in the Olympic National Forest. He and two of his friends decided I made a good playground for a few hours and climbed all over me!
