Chipmunk in Colorado (1 Viewer)

Hi all, back again with another mammal to identify. Saw this chipmunk in Rocky Mountains National Park, didn't get a good shot of its side so the stripes on its back are not really visible. Was hoping to see any of you here could hazard a guess on this one - was considering between the least, uinta and colorado chipmunk. Thanks!

I'm confident it isn't Least, which should show a black line below the white flank stripe.

I'm not sure about Uinta.

It does look pretty much like my own photo of Colorado Chipmunk so I'm going with that for now.

Was considering Colorado Chipmunk as well as I've seen some pictures of it with faint striping but not too confident about that. Thanks for popping by!
