In a few weeks, my 13 year old daughter is heading to France and Spain for a 10 day school trip. She needs a lightweight, packable rain jacket. She will also be hiking the Wonderland Trail with her mother and me first part of August–ideally, the same jacket will work for both, with the WT being the more demanding application.
She's 4'10-4'11 but still growing–high end eVent is prob. not an option (I'd like to stay under $100, preferably well under). Even the smallest DriDucks are huge, plus prob. won't cut it as Euro street fashion.
REI is running a spring sale right now, but I have no experience with the lower cost jackets there.
Any recommendations?
