Default light with texture or dark with detail ?

Hi everyone, I'm not sure what to do with photos like this. If I pull down the brightness, the contoured surface of the snow under the fence is seen and the rest of the snow has texture, but I lose the texture of the wood plank and the color of the post. Is it worth the trade off ?
