If you are going rafting, then go rafting! Why take a heavy, big, two-hand operated DSLR?
Can you answer: What will the DSLR system do for me that a compact WATERPROOF (instead of just "weather resistent", IF you buy a WR lens) camera wonīt?
Do you intend to print very very big? Are you shooting a very high dynamic range scene when rafting? Need 3 sec continuous drive mode? Is light changing really fast and you need direct, inmediate access to controls? Will you use long lenses and an OVF is a must?
I am not saying you shouldnīt take the DSLR but consider what you are shooting for and if there is a specific need for it.
I agree that focal lengths longar than 50mm are very hard to use while moving.
And most important of all, enjoy rafting. Donīt let photography get in the way of having fun, make it part of it (despite the tool you choose to take)
