Has anyone had any problems with filming snow and it coming out pure white?

On Sunday I was riding at Sunshine on what was probably the best day of the season with lots of fresh pow on some serious double black terrain. (exactly what I bought the go pro for in the first place)
When I got home I put it up on the tv and everything was washed out. It seems there is a problem with the white balance. Has anyone else had this problem?

I pulled this vid off youtube as I havent bothered to load any of mine yet.

Skip to 0:55 and this is what the majority of my stuff looks like. (I was also filming on a partly cloudy day)

YouTube - GOPR0063.MP4

Any ideas?
