We're driving out for the Birthday Bash later this week, if conditions don't improve in the Dolomites, we might not make it all the way there!

@BobinCH, opened in Photoshop. Image>auto tone and then Image>auto colour
Then a little judicial photo tweaking after
Most Photoshop knock-offs will have something similar

The snow is brighter than your camera thinks it is. It's best if you compensate for that in the camera, or you lose dynamic range and detail in your photographs. Set the camera's exposure compensation to +2/3 or +1 for snow. You can improve it in "post production", but you can't get back what you don't capture.

Download GIMP for the PC or Mac and use the photoshop skin. Or if it is still available, Pixel32 from Pavel K is basically a photoshop clone.
Auto contrast is simple one button fix.

I just use iPhoto and the autocorrect usually just makes things worse....

Yep, Gimp is a good alternative. Once you've got past the sniggering

I think the problem is that all auto exposure systems add up all the light readings coming through the lens and make the assumption that the end result should be neutral. I.e. Add up all the light bits, deduct all the dark bits and the result should be 'zero'. Some scenes aren't like that. Snow scenes and beach scenes come out underexposed and if you try taking pics of the night sky it will probably be murky grey and overexposed. As@philwig, says, you need to give it a couple of stops more exposure. Not sure how easy it is to do this on an iPhone, when on the move, but you can download apps that can do this. You can try and rectify this afterwards in Gimp if PS, but it will never be anything like as good.

This. The Exif suggests that's a real camera so it's settable. The thing is that most of the data is in the higher levels (it's not linear), so chucking that away makes the pictures look... well, not as good as they otherwise would.
