Additional hunting opportunities are available in nearby state game lands, some of which border the park.

For example, the 1.5-mile (2.4 km) long "Shades of Death" Trail follows the course of Sand Spring Run through dense rhododendron bushes that bloom from mid-June through mid-July.

The Fireline, Gould, and Pine Hill Trails are suitable for cross-country skiing in winter.

A short 0.7-mile (1.1 km) walk on the Hawk Falls trail leads to a popular waterfall.

It consists of a very gently sloping expanse of boulders that occupies the axis of a small valley with approximately 100-foot (30 m) of relief.

[9] First, boulder-size blocks are generated from the fracturing of an upslope bedrock outcrop by alternating freeze and thaw.

Proglacial deposits of normal polarity suggest the occurrence of another glaciation extensive enough to cover this area sometime after 740,000 years ago.

The last glaciation to have covered the area of the Hickory Run boulder field is mapped as Illinoian, about 150,000 years ago.

The interpretation of this data concluded that this boulder field has survived multiple glacial-interglacial cycles and possibly at least one glaciation.
