Need help with spider ID found in rose bush

[ArachniWorld]

Hello,
I would appreciate some help identifying this spider found in my rose bush. It's a little bigger than a hydei fruitfly at the moment. It's back has an interesting mark, almost like an elongated plus sign. Capturing a good pic was difficult but hopefully someone will recognize it. I am in Utah.

Looks like a Bark Lynx Spider (Hamataliwa grisea) to me. I'm not the best with spider ID, but this is one species I recognize. I always wanted one since they have such funny faces.

They DO have a funny face, like deer in the headlights eyes. I have a bunch of these running around in my rose bushes, just catching the little bugs around there.

Yeah, they are really cute in my opinion. There's a few sightings of these guys in my area; I'd love to see one someday.

The brow ridge on that species makes its face look like a moai. Now, should a spider have a brow ridge and a pair of tiny eyes that look like nostrils? After looking at its face, I think the clear answer is "yes".
