Woodcock Habitat

Woodcock Habitat sits along the Bold Coast Scenic Byway at an elevation of 123 feet, with the land dropping 75 feet within 600 meters of the overlook. The view faces 225°, roughly toward the southwest, putting the setting sun 45 degrees off square from the vantage point. From here, Pughole Mountain is visible to the south-southwest at a distance of 2.5 miles, reaching 368 feet, and Yellowbirch Mountain lies to the south at 4.6 miles, at 303 feet. Machias is the closest town, 16.1 miles to the west-southwest, with Calais 24.5 miles north and Milbridge 40.3 miles west-southwest. Reynolds Marsh Overlook is the previous stop along the byway. Given the westward-facing orientation, sunset arrives around 18:41 near the March equinox, 20:19 at the June solstice, 18:28 near the September equinox, and 15:51 at the December solstice.
