This jumping spider was hiding under a piece of dead wood in a forested area near Dolores, CO. Most of the jumping spiders I've seen this summer have been tiny, but this one was about a centimeter long.

Thanks DonnieMcLaughlin!
Gorgeous! Love these little guys.
Thanks Stephanie! I'm starting to think it's Phidippus adumbratus, but I'm not certain enough to call it. :)
Nice shots! This is definitely a member of the genus Phidippus.
