OOOH!! Sorry, sun size is 3x or less - bad but ~10x or less for PMC.
Value of Caustic Blur is too many - try decrease to default value or disable it.

No caustics on your image. - But... seems be not real...
Look... my work about ice stone and I tested to render... but HAVE caustics!! Sorry, I haven't snow material.
Sun size 9x is +/- equal to you.
PMC settings:
- 3k-sample/px at 9 minutes
- 27-maxdepth
- 5k-reject
- paralellism 1
- without "caustic blur"
Do you like my image?

NOTICE!!
Tried 100-depth but more depthes is to increase light of snow despite more realism -> issue... eheh! lool Therefore, we should disable emission for snow.

No, PT is less efficient than PMC for caustics.
Screenshot
Looks noises colored in caustics. 4500 kS/pixel at 9 minutes.
PMC is still better!

Martin used PT settings: maxdepth diff 6 and spec 8; caustic blur 0.2; GI clamp 10. These settings are incorrects.
I won but caustics only.

Hahahahah. How did this turn into a caustic olympics? I personally don't care about caustics in this case.
So Nuno is the winner of Caustics Paralympics 2015. Congrats! The price is an octane demo version.
