Visiting in Washington and my friend and I found this colony flipping rocks. Any clue on species? Found in a rocky and woody area near Belfair Wa

Can't be deleted? I noticed this site responds slow so it makes it very easy to repost when you don't think it's responding.

The image was in this thread, but it's no longer there for some reason. https://www.formicul...re/#entry208000

Looks like they posted the same image to iNaturalist though. https://www.inatural...tions/108779843
