Looking up the access road on the way to the summit of Green Mountain
Route: Access road
Lower portion of access road was muddy with some black ice, however once on the ridge, it was generally dry with the occasional puddle (breakable ice on top).
The highpoint looks to be adjacent to the third communications tower setup. Did a very brief, easy bushwhack south from there to some ledges for excellent views south and west.

Directions to trailhead: Take Route 11 West from Walmart in Claremont, then take a right onto Winter Street. Take a right onto Veteran's Park Road. Bear left, then across, onto Cat Hole Road. This road eventually becomes an unmaintained road - park somewhere around here (limited room), then proceed on foot through the gate on the right.
