I don't think there's any reason to fear this spider.
It looks to me like a pale, skinny Rabidosa Wolf spider. Not sure, though

Definitley NOT a brown recluse, if that's your concern.

We have them here in Montana and we call them Wolf spiders. They are big and scary but not aggressive. They do have a venimous bite but not too serious. I see them (the bites) on animals in my veterinary practice.

Soferdig, I think maybe we should point out that all spiders have a venomous bite - that's how they subdue their prey. But most are not a concern to humans ....other than an annoyance. Unless they are allergic to the bite. And spiders don't bite unless defending themselves.
