David Devitt at Bucksnort Saloon, Sphinx Park (August 21, 2025)
The Bucksnort Saloon in Sphinx Park, CO is an off-the-beaten-path legendary establishment up in the mountains off of 285 between Conifer and Bailey. Unless you were one of the 50?, 100? People who lived on Elk Creek Rd, you’d have no reason other than Bucksnort to take the ~6 miles from 285. The Bucksnort under new ownership as of 2018, couldn’t quite recover from the impact of COVID and without announcement, closed the saloon in 2022.
