Green mountain lived up to its name with at least fifty shades of green.After making our way to Spaulding point we continued to the summit that being entirely surrounded by trees doesn't have any views. We found an open area overlooking the Castle for a long and relaxed lunch.To complete the loop we went down on a good trail that eventually joins the main Green mountain trail.We enjoyed another break at the falls before making our way back to the cars.
