Green Hill
About
Green Hill is a summit in New York, about 2.2 miles from the town of Pottersville. It's a modest, compact destination, the kind of high point that pairs naturally with the trails close by. Summer is the most comfortable time to go. Typical July averages from the nearby Indian Lake weather station run to highs around 75°F and lows near 54°F, while winter highs there stay in the 20s. That station sits a few hundred feet below the summit, so temperatures up top run cooler. The closest trails are the Green Mountain Trail (Blue), about 0.6 miles away, and the Summit Trail (Yellow), about 1.2 miles away. Farther out are the Meade Mountain Trail at roughly 4 miles and the Moxham Mountain climbing area at about 7.5 miles.
