Misumena vatia
Found this crawling on my Ranger one day while riding. Evidently these spiders can actively change their body color from white to yellow depending on the color of the flower they're on.
Found living with wyoming big sagebrush, green rabbitbrush, cheatgrass and crested wheatgrass.

Awesome! I think you nailed it!
I think it's this guy (scroll down for more pictures, they are pretty variable) http://www.spiders.us/species/misumena-v...
