Banner Creek Campground is situated along Banner Creek at almost 6900 foot elevation. Surrounded by a mature forest, salmon spawn in Banner Creek which runs right through this campground. We saw beaver dams on the creek below camp only a short walk away. Except for the fact that Hwy 21, the "Ponderosa Scenic Byway", runs right by it, this campground is picture perfect. Still, what a beautiful spot! Sorry, my pictures do not do it justice.
