I think that if you were using an incident meter (measuring the light falling on the subject, via the meter's little white half globes), no compensation would be necessary since the reading isn't being thrown off by the light reflecting off the snow.

The incident meter showed at 1/250, an f stop of 5.6.
I should have opened up to f 4 at least then??and ignore
the K1000 of f 22/16.

The hand held meter will serve you well as long as you realize that
you will
need to open up two stops, or the snow will be registered as middle
gray on
the film.
