Running crab spider, Philodromus sp. ?

Reveler Conservation Area

Found several of these well camouflaged medium sized spiders on trees where they blend in well. I think this is likely a running crab spider in the genus Philodromus, as they are well known for climbing trees and blending in well with the bark. And moving fast! Which this one did.
