Moved from ID Request. I don't know if this matters, but the trail was not far from a bank of a river. Let's give it a try here and see what happens.

Difficult to judge how the eyes will move as it matures,
but we don't see wolf spider eyes here. We would think more likely a young Dolomedes

Looks like...
a Thin-legged Wolf Spider in the genus Pardosa.
