I just wanted to say how much I love your oculus I have Rheumatoid Arthritis and I was worried because my body is deformed that I wouldnt be able to use your product. I am happy to say you have come up with a product handicapped people CAN use thank you. Also I have a suggestion. Being handicapped I am not able to go hiking like normal people if you where able to put in VR someone hiking the pacific crest trail or any normal hiking trail anywhere it would allow people who are unable to hike experience hiking in a simulated way. We would be able to relate better to normal people who go hiking. Just a suggestion and once again I love your product I had to buy a new pc in order to use it but I am sooooooo glad I did.
I don't know if they sent camera's on any hiking trails, but you can get google earth and go down to street view and go through all the neighborhoods in a way simulating walking through neighborhoods (I went through my childhood neighborhood and it was awesome). Maybe you can give it a try and since you can go almost anywhere on earth that google camera's have been, check out the area's that are known hiking areas and see if perhaps they've sent anyone down those paths with a camera.
I went to Zion national Park and put the point of view right on the water and went all the way down the main canyon that way. Looked just like being on a raft. It would be better if the resolution of G Earth was finer, but it's cool cruising around the channeled scab-lands in Washington. There are a full series of lectures about the geology of Washington state on youtube.

@TurtleManHawks12 Does that mean you can't stand for long periods or can't use the Touch controllers or both..? The Climb is an excellent game and can be controlled with a gamepad as well as Touch controllers.
If you can't use the Touch controllers because your fingers aren't up to it there are plenty of EXCELLENT games available that use a gamepad.
Hey OP, you might want to try Freedom Locomotion VR on steam. It works fine with oculus and while being mostly a test platform for different VR locomotion types, it still has some nice landscapes to "walk" through, especially the later "levels"
