If your into park riding, you should go to grouse. They have a great park. And the view is stunning over the city and ocean. There is a cafe and restaurant and lots of things to do, even if you're not skiing. Snowshoeing, ice skating, sliding zone. Very family-friendly. Not the best powder resort, as the snow is mostly heavy and wet there (low altitude, close to the ocean) overall worth a trip, even if you just go there for the stunning view!

Grouse Mountain is a perfect place for a day of skiing if you are visiting Vancouver. It offers amazing city views and ice skating also. The night skiing is particularly fun for the view of the city and not to mention ocean views. Its an easy trek into the city core and plenty of transportation provided.
