Warm up filters for skiing

I am going skiing in January in the Alps, and want to shoot some
Color neg film. On clear days, you can see quite far and thus the pictures get a bluish look. Can anyone recommend me a type of warm up filter which will help me achieve a more neutral look in an alpine environment?

Thanks.

Given that you shoot negative: why not correct it in postprocessing, so after scanning the film you 'warm' things a bit in Photoshop (or similar)
 
Sometimes a polarizer helps either for getting the extra punch or at times when its diffuse to increase the contrast. If the effect of a polarizer is too much use a UV filter.

Yep. Do take care with polarisers on wide angles, as dependent on the angle of the light and the pola orientation you can get weird uneven blue skies.
