Definitely in the genus Pisaurina, it's that time of year for them too. Spiders in this genus can actually have a pretty decent amount of differentiation in eye arrangement, so it can make ID'ing them to the species a little easier.
I would agree with Pisaurina mira based on your first photo. "The nearly straight anterior row of eyes clearly distinguishes this species from P. undulata and P. dubia which have strongly recurved anterior rows" - Troy Bartlett
A slightly more clear image of the eye arrangement would lock it in.
The females can have a pretty wide range of color/pattern morphs, check it out.
Then there's about a dozen variations between those ones lol. Yours is pretty light and broken on the markings. Cool find. Silb is right, odd she is wandering about. Might have had her web destroyed or came under attack from another predator (another bigger spider like a Dolomedes that shares similar habitats)
