I'm 5'4" and 125, and have owned a Black Diamond pack. I had the Covert in the S/M size and it was a bit long. It seemed like my head was hitting the pack a lot. I have since went with a shorter pack length. Every person is sized different though. If the S/M doesn't work out, you can always return it. They've got great customer service here.

This could be problematic because the S/M is (torso size) 16"-19" and she is probably something closer to 14". Unfortunately BD doesn't make a pack specifically for smaller females (ie. smaller torso size), but you can't know what size she is unless you measure her. I am 6'2" 175lbs. and i wear anything from 18"-20". It just depends... On that note, you could order the S/M and just return it if it doesn't fit and get a smaller pack and an Avalung sling!
