I noticed that traffic was really backed up on Interstate 80 in the other direction. To reach Bushkill Falls I had to retrace my route and get back on Interstate 80 which proved to be easy. I also saw the Stevenson Express chairlift operated by the ski resort. At one point the trail offers a great view of the Camelback Mountain Resort from above so I took many photos of that. I saw rock outcroppings and lots of ferns which always look pretty in the woods.
The Indian Trail is orange blazed and I only saw orange trail markings. I thought I had gotten onto another trail but according to the park map I probably stayed on the Indian Trail which loops around. I hiked the Indian Trail which was more rocky than I expected. You can even see the Delaware Water Gap far in the distance. You can see the woods and mountains of Pennsylvania for a long distance in every direction. The main attraction of the Big Pocono State Park is the spectacular view of the countryside from that elevation. The Camelback Mountain Resort seemed to be quite busy for the July 4th weekend but fortunately I didn’t see a long line of cars until I went back down the mountain.

I had precise directions on how to reach the state park but I wasn’t certain I was going the right way until I saw the park entrance.
You have to drive past the Camelback Mountain Resort to reach the park on a curvy rural road that is partially uphill. The park is maintained by the Camelback Mountain Resort which is a large ski resort and waterpark. My first goal was to visit the Big Pocono State Park. I managed to spend the entire day in the area and did most of the things on my itinerary. On Saturday during the July 4th weekend I made my second trip to the Poconos and Stroudsburg.
