2020 Map of Drummond

About this map

Drummond serves as the central hub of this valley landscape, situated where Flint Creek meets the Clark Fork river. The settlement pattern reflects a long history of ranching and transit, with the town bisected by modern infrastructure that follows the path of older routes like Old Hwy 10A and the historic Mullan Rd. To the north, the foothills of the Garnet Range rise toward King Mtn, cut by a series of steep drainages such as Rattler Gulch and Garden Gulch. To the south, the landscape softens into the agricultural flats of the Flint Creek Valley, where the historic site of New Chicago and the Valley Cem provide significant points of interest for genealogists and local historians. This era of the map captures the transition between the valley's deep ranching roots, evidenced by names like Lorenson Ranch Rd, and its role as a corridor for interstate travel.
