Help Id? Trapdoor-huntsman?

I found the spider a while back and can't help but wonder what it was, I live in Northern Nevada that helps any. Thanks

Nice find!

That's a folding door spider - likely an Antrodiaetus species such as A. montanus or a close relative.

See, for example, this one: https://bugguide.net/node/view/861867/bgimage and this one: https://bugguide.net/node/view/248596

That’s a really cool spider.

And a great picture. Hey OP, there's this little whoople thing called 'crop' with most imaging software. Just saying.

Yep, mature male Androdiaetus. Encountered one wandering in southern Missouri. He was comically defensive; fell over backwards while showing me how big and bad he was.

Awesome, thanks! Haha and yeah I was a bit speedy on the image posting. You guys are great. I'm not to easily creeped out by spiders. But this guy had some attitude. These and wind scorpions... may be posting a few others I have figured out yet...
