This is a small black spider with red bags on its upper legs and head. I searched for an id on the bug guide and was unable to find one.

This one was on a rock

Machi, Maybe that is why I was unable to ID the spider. Really odd looking. Thought I had a new species of spider.
Machi
Yes, those are mites. I find them on spiders quite often
