Oriflamme Canyon Loop

Trail Overview

This trail starts and ends in Banner and loops around Chariot Mountain and goes into the Oriflamme Canyon. The trail is open to all types of 4x4s and dirt bikes, although the entrance through Banner is only open to highway-legal vehicles as that entrance is only accessible by the highway. You will encounter a variety of obstacles such as steep switchbacks with deep ruts, rocky sections with large drop-offs, and unmaintained dirt scattered with mud puddles (depending on the time of year). A total of 3 gates will be on the trail, they will be closed but not locked, please leave the gates as you found them. Some sections of the trail are very tight and about the width of one car. There are also many trails in the area that intersect the main loop trail.
