Contax RF ( the OLD ones) were quite rugged.  Mine did fine in the cold, but
hiking woith them will break your back.  They will also require you to get
another system of lenses, etc.  I might suggest a used ( beater) M3 DS would
be a better overall deal and maybe cheaper in the long run.  Plus you get to
use that great Leitz glass.....
