i think sunpeaks and bigwhite would be the best ski places in BC right now.
unless you want a quick fix, i guess grouse is okay too (i have never been) but Seymour suck major asssssssssssssssss. you can fall asleep waiting to go up the lift and it only takes 1 minute to ski the whole thing down.

I don't mind the quick fix. 
Big White would be boss, but that's not always feasible. | |

Went on Sunday. It was drizzling/icy flakes in the morning, foggy at times. Cleared up after lunch, still cloudy but the sun was putting up a fight.
Conditions, the runs were decent, the sides were wet and sticky though, so even though they lookd like fresh pow, it was stiiiicky. Alright if you were on a blue/black as they were steeper, but at times they were near flats and so it sucked to suddenly slow down.
I had a lot of fun on their black runs, as there were cliffs & drops galore.
