And once impaled on a #12 fish hook, will catch the biggest trout in a desert stream.Maybe not strange but I've run into these on the east side of the cascades quite a few times.

That is a "small" one I found while mountain biking in Bend. Those antennae are probably 3-4 inches long. The big ones are twice that size or more.
Several years ago, My brother and I were hunting cougar up near Swift Res, and we found a field of these very large spiders that had webs from tree to tree, and big enough/strong enough to catch and hold a humming bird! These spiders looked almost exactly like the normal garden spiders but about three to four times the size and were bright neon orange with yellowish spots! Big nasty suckers! The only way to find them was to wave a stalk of long grass out in front to catch the webs! The biggest one I saw was about 4'' long, Body and head, with legs that spanned about 5'' I have been told they are normal in these areas, but in all my years I have only seen them one time!

This one nearly got me. As you can see I chopped off one of its legs while fighting for my life.

It is!When born the little spiders spread out and release a strand of thread that carries them away on the wind.
I think it's called ballooning?
It is!
Thats funny salmonriverjohn.
Once while surfing , I had a otter slap my leg while he was playing tag.
Scared the sh!t out of me , till I saw him.
