Allen's Chipmunk is part of the "Townsend's Complex" which is a
fancy way of saying that not all taxonomists agree it's a separate
species from Townsend's Chipmunk. It's range, according to _Land
Mammals of Oregon_ (Verts and Carraway 1998) extends north through
the eastern Cascades to about Jefferson Co.
