As a word of caution let me say that there are some tents unsuitable for fall hunting where a snow storm could be a possibility.
Namely any tents with a single wall but with netting along the top the floor "wall" and extending to the fly. This design to promote ventilation will admit blowing snow and there is nothing you can do about it including building a low wall of snow around the tent.
But there are some ultra light Dyneema fabric tents that will be OK in a windy snowstorm, tents for example, like the Tarptent Notch Li with the ripstop fabric option.
