I have found examples of both falling rock[1] and fallen rocks[2] on signage and it's not clear to me which is the more common.
There are >50 usages of hazard=falling_rocks and only 3 usages of "Fallen rock" (with incorrect space and capitalization), so I went with what was most commonly tagged. I am not opposed to abandoning this minor usage of falling_rock and replacing it with a new fallen_rock if that's the consensus. Are others in favor of dropping falling_rocks for fallen_rocks?
