Dall sheep 1 person tent recommendations

[wildwilderness]

First post here and I would appreciate a recs. I'm going on a Dall sheep hunt in AK this Sept and need a good light tent. I was planning to but a Kuiu Summit 1 star but they are sold out of the mesh liners and don't know if or when they will get more in. Maybe I would be fine without it so I'm open to opinions about that as well. I've hunted moose and caribou in AK before but this will be my first real backpacking hunt and definately need to keep the weight down. I already have a lot invested in this hunt so cost isn't really a concern. Thanks,

Summit 1 star with a footprint (no mesh) is what I use for solo August sheep hunts in AK. Weight makes a huge difference solo.

Going guided and possibly a packer as wel? Then weight isn’t as critical. As to weather anything can happen, but the summit has been fine if you pitch it right.

Hilleberg Niak is what I brought to the Brooks Range after looking at a dozen different shelters—struck a good balance between weight, room and reliability.

I took the Tarptent Notch Li Dyneema on my dall sheep hunt and was very happy with it. Super light yet durable. Super fast waterproof setup as well. My guides were impressed. I was in my tent in 1/3 the time it took to set theirs up and they had other issues with their Kuiu as well.

How did your sheep hunt turn out?
