I agree about the Canon G9… it would be an awesome camera for what you are planning… just get an inexpensive weather casing for it …

sounds like you need one with image stabilize

National Geographic Adventure Magazine just named the Olympus 790 as a good camera for adventurers.

It has so many features that make it suitable for adventure that I’ll just post the B&H link and you can click on the “Features” tab.

This looks like a great choice for you, especially since it’s under $300.

Canon PowerShot G9 is great for you.

You may want to get a waterproof/shockproof compact digital camera .. they are within your price range
