spider in July (probably a Thin-legged Wolf Spider) at White Pond Reservation in eastern Massachusetts

Underfoot is a cute spider. I think it is a Thin-legged Wolf Spider (Pardosa spp), one of over 100 spieces of this genera in the U.S., according to The Audubon Society Field Guide to North American Insects and Spiders.
