Spider Species in Boise, Idaho

Question

there are webs everywhere i go-- on bushes, in corners, fences, trees, bushes, etc. Strewn in no particular pattern or order, like cotton candy. Sometimes I see small funnels, but on almost every occasion I can never see the spider who made the web. The one time I saw the spider, it seemed to be no larger than a nickle and a pale yellow color with darker markings. I was wondering if it could be hobo spider, but I didn't think they would be this common. Any thoughts/suggestions?
