We haven’t had a chance to post this image after more than a week, mostly because the quality is rather bad, however, in light of a sighting in nearby Silverlake several years ago, we thought it would be nice to acknowledge that this Lynx Spider in the genus Hamataliwa is also present in Mount Washington.  See BugGuide for additional information and for better images.
