In this case, I vote square. While at it (and subtly steering you towards the Koni Omega) try a 6x7 crop

Good idea to crop part of the dark bottom but I would have preserved more of the sky above.

If you did 2 steps back, you´d have trees on the horizon non-cropped. For me it´s beginner´s mistake and it doesn´t look good at all.

Well, I am no beginner, and a tree or shrub or weed is going to get cropped whether the viewpoint is moved up or back. But hey, it's all good ...

Regarding the original question I prefer the square one, there is little or no detail of interest in the bottom part. The crop makes thus the composition more "focused" on what matters. The horizontal version is good as it is, I mean straight out of the camera. By the way beautiful place.
Cheers, M.
