Please try this image...
If you are new to CM use the wizard to enhance the color and contrast...

Nice location .I kept trying to find fish in the water.
1st pass SHN in lab
2nd S-curve in brightness in HSB
3rd tweaks to color in lab(I selected out the boulders and their reflections and applied colors only to bottom of picture)

I used the Wizard and then added a pin on some grassy-type plants that just looked to bright green to me.

Sometimes the bright green can be reduced by a second pass in CM in a different color space. you might choose RGB or HSB and just tweak the Green a tiny bit if it bothers you...you have done a fair job on this as well good work...

By "tweak" the green in RGB do you mean adjust the green curve? When I try reducing the amount of green by dragging the curve down the image takes on a reddish cast, which makes sense, I guess, since it's the complementary color.

I does but you can limit the adjustment by placing "control points above and below the adjustment. Hover the cursor over the green in question and look at the Green channel in RGB. The "worm" will show you the Range of points that are under the mouse at that point in time. If you right click and choose "mark" it will place a marker on the curve line and you can go back and adjust just that part of the curve.
Give it a shot and see if you can limit the change...
