If you prefer mountain and tree type parks, I'd go across to Death Valley then north from there to King's Canyon/Sequoia NP and North to the west entrance of Yosemite NP. I personally think Yosemite is the crown jewel of the park system. There most likely will still be snow on the ground there and the east side of the park will probably be closed.

Just to clarify a little for your trip planning if you take this advice (and it's good advice), if you go across Death Valley from Vegas you're going to need to go South in order to go North. So if you're looking at a map once you cross Death Valley you'll need to go South on 395 probably to 58, but you can do 178 too. Then you take one of those roads west over to 99. Then you can go north on 99 and access Kings Canyon, Sequoia, and Yosemite. Neither Kings Canyon or Sequoia can be accessed by car any time of year from the east side, and the road into Yosemite will likely still be closed in March from the east side too.
