Not sure if I think the graffiti everywhere is a good or a bad thing. People have been painting on rocks since the beginning of time. The worst thing is it makes some areas slick. Was fun exercise to climb. Could be dangerous not because of all the glass but a fall would definitely hurt. Nice short hike. Climbing got some different muscles engaged.

Nothing I would go out of my way to visit but if you're in the area and need to kill an hour it could be a nice place to walk around. Its covered in a lot of graffiti and seems like a place some locals come to drink and smoke. You do get a decent overlook and climbing around the rocks is fun.

I guess it could be interesting if you're a geography enthusiast. Otherwise fairly boring. Lots of broken glass as others have mentioned, kids drinking I guess. The graffiti detracts from any natural beauty. No plans to go back.

Be careful, there is a lot of enamel and oil based paint on the main boulder structure. Do not attempt to traverse while it's raining or wet. You will slip, you will fall.

Please, do not break MORE glass, or litter more roaches or swisher foils. Be careful where you hold onto, or put your hands. There is broken glass everywhere.

This is not a park for children. Nor for dogs. The paths get incredibly steep, and they are hard to traverse unless you are used to rougher trails and mountainous terrain.

Do not spray paint illicit images. There is too many swastikas and hateful or discriminating messages spray painted. If I see them, I will cover them over. If you are responsible for these and recognize me, tell me, so we can solve this like men. This is a boulder formation moved thousands upon thousands of years ago by melting icebergs. If you think your hatred or defiance or ignorance is welcome, I have a problem with you.

Enjoy this park for the beautiful natural wonder it is. Smoke if you're inclined to, but respect this place, and be careful. Too many people have fallen from the formation, some have even died. Always be careful,...

AVOID!!!! VERY DANGEROUS PARK!!! BEWARE!!!! My family (with small kids) and I went there today after looking at a blog on good places to hike in the Lehigh Valley area. It sounded great--after all the place has some of the oldest rock formations in the state...BUT the place is overrun with crackheads, dope users and homeless people who were camped out on the rocks. Two unscrupulous young men passed by us on the trail who were obviously very stoned. The place is tagged all over too. This is sad because the place could really be very cool, but unfortunately the place is taken over by dangerous drugged out people who do not...
