Oct 25, 2009 — Hickory Run State Park, where the boulder field is located, is a nice park at the southwest corner of the Pocono Mountains. I remember coming here as a kid a long time ago and later trying to find it on Google Maps without knowing what it was called (and at the time, it wasn't marked on the Internet). While this isn't much of a hike, it's still really neat because, well, science. Sadly, people graffiti (of course because of the easy access), but scrambling around for a bit gives a sense of how big the boulder field is, a cool feature for Pennsylvania, and removes you from the casual viewers.

This is a really cool spot with large boulders for hopping over.

I just wrapped around the boulder field to get a sense of the scale.
