Dolomedes tenebrosus. This lovely beast was lurking in my basement of all places. I captured her and snapped a few pics before releasing her.

glad i dont have a basement lol

You're not kidding - having your wife call you at work to tell you this is stuck to the wall inside your house was harrowing to say the least.

It was interesting to note that these spiders are large enough to catch small fish, although they are totally harmless to humans.
