Bluewood is a terrible mountain.   I typically ride there around 20-30 days a season, just because it's the only thing within an hour of where I live.  The park is rediculously small, the lifts are terribly slow, and, as others have already said, the management is screwed up.  I'll probably be teaching lessons there this year so I can get a free pass there and ski free at other places.  Even without a free pass in a good season it's worth it to get a pass if you live close, in the early season $165 will get you a student pass, which comes with a mug for free coffe at a gas station on the way up or down.  The most dissapointing thing about Bluewood is the complete lack of cliffs.  There's no exposed rock whatsoever after they get a few feet of snow.   But, if you don't mind hitting the same marginal table-top and building out of bounds all day, you can have a good time there.
As far as other western washington resorts go - Mission Ridge has some excellent terrain, cliffs, chutes, fun stuff.  Most of my friends who live in spokane ride at Silver instead of Schweitzer because of the combination of Silver's easy access, good park, and Schweitzer's crowds and often terrible weather.  Brundage in Idaho is wonderful and small and largely undescovered, great terrain.  The best skiing is just across the border in Canada.  Whitewater has the most hardcore locals I've ever seen.  No park, but with natural tarrain like that, who needs one.  Red Mountain is a good time, but it's getting bigger and loosing it's small feel.  I've heard good things about Fernie, but never been there.
