Hey @NateKingsford, I second this isn't a spider, and can agree on Hemiptera. With a quick scan of recent sightings, @KylieWaldon 's echoes your sighting, noting similar appearance to a spider, and broadly similar build. Amorbus sp. (genus)

Thanks for the sighting @MazzV, we'll suggest Hemiptera under true bugs and the insect moderators can take it from there.
