Hi

I'm not thrilled about hiking in the rain, but I also know the weather around my area (Pacific NW) changes on a dime.

I have a decent Columbia jacket, but it is more of a snowboard powder jacket. It is big, bulky, and fairly heavy.

I have a Red Ledge Thunderlight pant, and have been wondering about thei jacket.. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000QC8R6 ... VON2G&vs=1

What do you all think of this jacket? What do you use, and what are your thoughts about it?

What do you do about size? Should it be big enough to go over pack, or just enough to allow warmth layers?

Thanks for your input
