Located just to the west of 285 as you head north from Fairplay, Cow Rock is a standing testament to human ingenuity and creativity. As you speed past make sure to catch a long look at the rock immaculately painted in the glorious visage of a cow.
Sadly we didn’t see anything, even turned around, going north, to see if from a different angle but still nothing.
It is difficult to find, not in the exact spot app suggests. If you are traveling on 285 S towards Fairplay, it is on your left, just as the road curves. Past Hertiage Ranch of the Rockies which is on your right. The view traveling south is limited, just kinda see the head. But we looped back around, going northbound you can see it in full view. Sadly it was graffitied, but still an interesting find.
Cow Rock left me absolutely speechless. I couldn’t tell if it was living or not. 10/10 would recommend
