It's in the genus Argia, I think Argia apicalis, the Blue-Fronted Dancer.
They're great for sitting on rocks and getting their pictures taken. If you look really closely (best in the hand), you can recognize Argia by the long setae ("hairs") on their legs. The other damsels in the same family have much shorter and sparser spurs - each shorter than the distance between them.
