Exposure is how cameras adjust to light. This feature can be fooled however if the background is too bright or too dark, or if there is a big contrast. Exposure is important for winter adventure photography because the snow often creates a situation where it is very bright.
A camera's exposure values are able to be adjusted. When the object you are shooting at is darker than the background, you would want to increase exposure value.
A few suggested exposure settings can be found at http://www.digicamhelp.com/taking-photos/advanced-techniques/ev/ .
When I looked at the specifications for my camera, a Fujifilm Finepix Z200fd, it has exposure control listed as TTL 256 - zones metering and exposure control listed as Programmed AE. I am not sure what either of those mean and the Fujifilm site wasn't very helpful in this area.
