I think the close up is not as nice..:)
To get there drive west on Harmony Rd in Ft Collins past Taft Hill Rd.
The road will continue up to Horsetooth Reservoir. Follow the road around the south side of the reservoir and up through a small brown-wood community.
Trailhead is about a mile from the boat ramp on the right.
The trail is a short, 2.5 mile hike up a fairly steep grade to Horsetooth Rock, elevation is 1500ft so take a rest as you climb..
It is a nice hike, there is a fee of 6$/car..
and be aware that there is leash control when you bring your pet...
