Neil,
I think this looks a bit flat, mostly because of the fact that you have the brighter areas of snow set at too low a level. I think it gets more "pop" if you try either of these:
(1) Using your b/w version, add a Levels adjustment layer an try input level settings of 0, .73, 238
OR, which I like even better:
(2) using your color version, use a Channel Mixer adjustment layer and try settings of red: +170, green: +80, blue: -150
and a Levels adjustment layer with input level settings:
0, 1.0, 236
This latter version creates a more dramatic contrast between the
white peak and the sky at the horizon just above the house.
