You had your left stick to go up so were you not paying attention or something? Edit; plus the stick movements seem to match the trace left by flight

I pushed the left stick up once it started to smashed the branches to try and clear the tree. Then in crashed to the ground and bounced into the river it hit the ground with enough force to bounce 10 feet over to the river

Unless you crashed onto a trampoline, there's no way something bounced 10 feet into anything. I could plummet my drone from 400ft and it wouldn't do that.

 

[SpinItUp]

I'm guessing this is where it bounced


Edit; looking from the other angle I can see a bounce


Edit, Edit; no idea as of now
Why did you set?
Setting new Maximum Flight Altitude to 500m (1640 ft)

Onto an embankment, it makes sense.

Would you mind sharing the DAT file, maybe that gives more info?

Edit;
DONT FLY UP INTO CANOPY OF THE TREES

Im trying to figure out how to get the Dat file to show you. I didn't fly into the canopy the drone seemed to do it on its own

 

[SpinItUp]

Change .DAT to .txt (rename)
Crazy max height may have s'thing to do with it?

I'm having trouble matching your description to the data.
At the end of the data, the drone is still hovering at a VPS indicated altitude of 4.6 ft.
There's no crash or sudden upward flight.
Have you supplied the correct flight log?
