Hmm...
The relatively high ocular area suggests a Pardosa to me. I'm not sure this spider is identifiable beyond genus with these images.

I didn't notice that.
The wideness of the dark stripes on the sides of the carapace and the apparent lack of long spines, on the legs, scared me out of that genus. Of course, you have much more experience with these IDs. So, I may just be adding confusion.

Female - Wolf Spider
This might be a female in the genus Schizocosa, but I'm not sure of the species. Let's wait for an expert.
