I'm going to be hiking everyday for the next week and am unsure which type of pants to wear. It's around 30/40 degrees Fahrenheit where I'll be hiking, and it's supposed to be pretty rainy everyday.
Basically I'm going to be with a class and we're only hiking about 9 miles per day, then taking a bus back to my school so we can all go home and eat and whatnot, then hike the next section of the trail the next day, so I won't be carrying my clothes for the entire week around with me and I'll have access to a washer and dryer.

My question is should I wear yoga pants or jeans while hiking? I know both will be pretty heavy if they get wet from rain, but I have a raincoat which goes past my knees so they shouldn't get TOO wet. Which would be better?

thanks!
