Banner Creek Summit

Banner Creek Summit is a mountain pass in the western United States in central Idaho, at an elevation of 7,037 feet (2,145 m) above sea level.

Traversed by State Highway 21, the Ponderosa Pine Scenic Byway, it is located on the border of Custer County and Boise County, also the border of the Challis and Boise National Forests, immediately northwest of the Sawtooth Range.

The highway follows Banner Creek, a tributary of the Middle Fork of the Salmon River, on the north side of the summit, and Canyon Creek (South Fork - Payette River) on the south side.

This section of SH-21 is usually not maintained during the winter months, due to light traffic and heavy snowfall.
