You can access some fantastic areas of Yosemite National Park not seen by most visitors.

I surprised my dad with this trip.
We're going next (with my aunt and uncle)!!! ^^^
Labor Day might be too soon, but Yosemite NP is also perfect for around Columbus day. Aspens are changing colors, and there's lots of services in the valley. I hear fall at Grand Canyon (with their aspens) is fantastic.
Another couple NPs with decent services are Zion NP and Bryce NP in SW Utah. Both are reasonable close to LAS. Both are incredible (as is the Grand Canyon NP North Rim!)
