Hello there.


Rock walls never seem to amaze me for a great place to find spiders.

after being rather patient ... for me this is quite an accomplishment...
no one came out to visit me :(

I will try again later though to me somehow it looks abandoned.

Hello
That looks like a type of cribellate web, if you drop a bug on the web it should snare it and maybe you'll see the spider.

Hello.
That page is very informative, i saw a cribellate comb out there web once, there leg moves so fast you can hardly tell its moveing, i think most cribellates can live many years, i found one once that looked like a large powerfull black widow and its bite would kill very fast, it would act just like a widow also and with its web looking black widow style only white cottony in collor.
