Help me decide where to go next summer

So a bit of background..my boyfriend I love to travel, and love to do certain things when we travel. We've gone around a bit of the US this summer, and have managed to catch a baseball game and visit a brewery at each place, so we want to continue this "tradition". We also love to be outdoors, and really enjoy nature (at least during the summer).

However, we're a bit stumped about where to go next summer now that we've narrowed it down to 2 possible trips:

Trip 1: Fly into LA, catch a Dodgers game and sight see a bit. Drive up to Yosemite National park for 4 days of camping/hiking. Drive down to Oakland, catch an Athletics game, fly home from there. Somewhere in there throw in a brewery or 2.

We visited San Fran, Napa and Yosemite this year, but absolutely loved our time in Napa, and feel like we didn't have enough time there.

Trip 2: Fly into Denver, drive to Rocky Mountains. Camp in the park for 4 days. This would be more strenuous camping, because there's NO electric/water hookups, while at Yosemite there's even showers..Drive back to Denver, catch a Rockies game and visit some breweries. This would be somewhere new, which also holds an appeal to us.

Which would you do? We keep flip flopping, but both trips take a TON of planning, so we need to at least decide on a location semi soon

Thanks!

I would do Colorado, somewhere new. I loved the Rockies, really beautiful (although never camped there). Both trips would be amazing though!

Re: Help me decide where to go next summer

Both trips sound great, so it's a win win! We went to Yosemite this past summer. We were too last minute to go camping but it was so crowded. Sequoia National Park was much less crowded. Maybe consider Sequoia instead of Yosemite to try something different if you still want to do the California thing? Either way, whatever you choose, it will be fabulous!
