Riverside Walk to Swale Canyon, WA - No Talk, No Music, Just Nature. 4K Virtual Hike

Experience the Swale Canyon Trail in Washington, presented in 4K - the entire hike in real-time, complete with the actual, relaxing sights & sounds of nature.
Tucked away just one hill over from the busy Columbia River Gorge, this quiet hike feels a world away. Its humble beginnings soon give way to surprisingly nice scenery, as Swale Creek gathers strength and glides between basalt lava formations and towering canyon walls. And hey, the wildflowers and hidden waterfalls don't hurt.
I'm still ironing out the camera setup, as well as the format/structure of these vids going forward... thanks for yall's patience! Please feel free to comment on the good, the bad, or the ugly - this is a learning experience. My goal is for each video to improve on the last.
I know the camera is tilted at times (although it does improve through most of it), so that's obviously a major priority. I'm hoping not to have to use a gimbal (makes for a trickier setup) but I realize I may need one... we'll see how things go.

The Swale Canyon trail is 15 miles from end to end. You hiked about one fourth of it.

You are absolutely correct. That fact is mentioned in the video at around 1:26:30, but yeah the title is misleading. I changed it, thanks for the feedback.
