I've read thru (mostly)the best lightweight tent thread, but they're youre talking about $500 tents.
I've gone snowcamping 3 times (I took the Bay Area Sierra Club snow camping course last winter). First time I used a loaned Megamid. It did okay in about 8-12" of snow, but we did have to get out and get snow off the lower part of the wall. We forgot to use the side tie-outs.
2nd time snow cave. Cool, but time consuming.
So I'm not sure I really enjoy snow camping yet. Something about being wet and cold, I think.
I'd like to keep trying though. But I don't want to(can't at the moment anyways) invest is a $500 tent.
I was leaning toward a Duomid, based on my Megamid experience. I live on the East coast for now, so I'd mainly be dealing with snow loading, and one night trips.
I have an pre-08 TT Rainbow, put an oware Cattarp2, but I'm not sure those are appropriate.
Anything else recommended?
