Identify Queen from the Uintas

My brother and I decided to climb King's Peak in on August 6. King's peak is the tallest point in Utah and is located in the Uinta National forest. While we were at about 10,300 feet, we found 2 ants that looked to be queens. I just happened to have a test tube with me and I captured them. I have been keeping them in a test tube setup since then. Every 2 weeks, I would check up on them hoping to see some eggs, but I havn't yet. Can you identify this species for me?
