  • Join me on a breathtaking 3.6 mile hike on the Tom McCall Point Trail near Rowena Crest in the Columbia River Gorge. This beautiful trail offers stunning views of Mount Hood, Mount Adams, and the Columbia River. Along the way, you'll see wildflowers, oak woods, and Douglas-fir forests.
    The trail starts at Rowena Crest Viewpoint, where you'll have your first expansive view of the Columbia River Gorge. The trail then climbs up through the trees, offering beautiful views of the gorge and the river.
    After about 1.8 miles, you'll reach McCall Point, where you can take a break and enjoy the views of Mount Hood and Mount Adams. The trail then continues up to Building Mountains Viewpoint, where you'll have even more amazing views of the gorge and the surrounding mountains.
    This hike is a great way to experience the beauty of the Columbia River Gorge. It's challenging but doable, and the views are worth it.

    The hiking trail is so great and beautiful. Is it mountain under the snow Mount Hood or Mount Adams? It looks so amazing. It's not nice when something breaks, especially the lens on the camera. Take care and have a nice day. Sretana and Zac. 🖐😄🤗

      Exactly! Mt. Hood and Mt. Adams. It was a bummer to break the lens filter, but I was grateful it was only the filter and not the lens! Thanks for your kind words.

    Another amazing video of an amazing trail! *bucket list writing noises in the background*

      Ha ha! This one is definitely worthwhile. I'd recommend mid-May when wildflowers are full bloom (this was in late May, so I had just missed them).

    The view at 0:50, wowee. Great little hike and film Thomas. The relief that you had a filter on that lens, phew. Stay safe out there!

      Truly, that view over the Columbia River with Mt. Adams, incredible! Thanks for your continued support!

    I discovered this trail/area a year and a half ago, just before the wildflower bloom. Such beautiful views! It was also a time of processing grief for me; it's sad to be reminded of that time, but I also remember feeling some hope in those views, so it's nice to remember that. :) Great job on the video, as usual!

      That is beautiful to hear: hope in the middle of sorrow can be so powerful. I pray that things have been better for you since going on this hike.

    Beautiful views on this trail, especially where you were sitting and standing at the scenic views. The landscape looked mostly bald with little canopy at least in the filmed areas. Hate that your lens cover broke, I bet there’s a big story behind that. Enjoyed the gentle music and thank you for sharing ✌🏽🌿 1:42

      This is an amazing wildflower spot but I was a bit late unfortunately. The wind blew my tripod over, I need to more careful in how I set it up in windy conditions! Thanks for your support.

    Great area, you captured the scenery perfectly! Was this filmed in the spring? Also wow, just realized your channel is blowing up, congrats, your work very much deserves it! I have been been learning a lot about how to improve my camera skills from watching your content, much appreciated!

      @Zoomdak  Před 8 měsíci

      Thanks ya! I had a short go viral. It hasn't really translated to my full films being watch more yet but that's okay. This was filmed in late May, so I had just missed the wildflower bloom. Thanks for your kind words, appreciate the work you are doing as well!

    Beautiful scenery. The same thing happened to my camera, lense. The lense was totally destroyed while taking photos in the early morning of a comet.

      @Zoomdak  Před 8 měsíci +1

      Ah dang, that's a bummer! I was glad it was only the filter and not the entire lens! Appreciate your support!
