Probably either least or cliff chipmunk. Uinta chipmunk is also found in this part of the state, but is associated with coniferous forests.

Looks like a Dudleya, but according to the Burke Musuem, there are no Dudleya spp. in Washington. Maybe a Sedum, but the leaves don't look right. Is it possible this is an exotic species?.

The fisher is a candidate for listing under the Endangered Species Act. In the state of Washington, fishers have been re-introduced to the Olympic Peninsula, and I believe they will be (or have been) re-introduced to the Mt. Rainier area.

Five-lined skink doesn't occur in California.

Based on the habitat (rocky intertidal) it is probably a striped shore crab. Purple shore crabs also occur in this habitat, but they tend to have distinctive red spots on the claws. Can't quite make out the carapace to be sure.

According to californiaherps.com, there are two subspecies of western rattlesnake in northern California: the northern Pacific, and the Great Basin, which occurs generally east of the Cascades-Sierra Nevada.

Definitely a beetle, but from a distance, it looks like a wood ant. Maybe it is just me, but is there some mimicry here?

Were the brown bats you mentioned big brown bats (Eptesicus fuscus) or little brown bats (Myotis lucifugus)? If smaller than both, probably a pipistrelle.

Possibly an eastern pipistrelle, but can't be sure. Be careful not to disturb hibernating bats; they use a lot of energy to become active. Is white-nose syndrome common in Georgia?

Looks like a sculpin (Cottidae), but I am not familiar with darters (Percidae), which I know occur in your area too.
