At first I thought it might be a Dusky Flycatcher, but on looking at the picture closer, I think it might be a Cordilleran.
The bill shape seems wide, and the lower mandible is very pale.
Any thoughts?

I spotted this flycatcher at the Endovalley Campground in Rocky Mountain National Park, CO on 7/29/12.
