The Least Chipmunk is one of the smallest of the Chipmunks. It lives in large areas of western and northern North America.

I had pulled the car off the road to take a break and admire scenery. Just a short ways off the road I saw this little Chipmunk pop up onto a rock. It appeared to notice me and watch me for a very short time, then hopped from rock to rock before finally disappearing around a larger group of rocks.
