A beautiful lookout, the Google Maps pin is wrong though. Actual location is: 44°21'10.4"N 68°04'27.9"W There is no signage and the pull over is tiny. It's a very short walk to the cliff, no water or gear is required. I wouldn't bring young children or pets here due to steep rocky cliffs that would definitely be fatal if they fell. I would not visit in wet or windy conditions and I say this as someone able bodied and in good shape.
