How to Use This Drummond Island, Michigan Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Drummond Island, Michigan. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Michigan or beyond.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Drummond Island.

Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.

Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

About Drummond Island, Michigan

Drummond Island is a locality in Chippewa County, Michigan, United States. It has a population of approximately 1,000. The population density is 5.0 people per km². Drummond Island is located at 46.0205°N, 83.7331°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/Detroit) timezone. ZIP code: 49726.

Drummond Island reveals its rugged character through the winding path of Kemp Creek, which cuts a dark, peat-stained ribbon through the dense coniferous thickets and limestone barrens that define the terrain. It lies 43.9 miles southeast of Sault Ste Marie, MI (from Sault Ste Marie, MI: bearing 138°T), and is situated 44.1 miles southeast of Sault Ste. Marie. Marie. The landscape here is defined by the expansive, slate-colored reach of Lake Huron, which presses against the shoreline and imparts a bracing, cold humidity to the air, while the nearby Quarry Island rises from the water like a jagged fragment of the mainland. To the west, the Maxton Plains spread out as an open, alvar-studded expanse, offering a stark contrast to the thick pine stands that hold the scent of resin and damp earth, while the distant, hazy silhouette of Hungry Hill anchors the horizon against the encroaching gray of an approaching storm.

Drummond Island sustains a quiet, deliberate pace of life, its economy historically tethered to the extraction of stone and the slow, rhythmic harvest of the woods. Residents navigate the seasons with a sturdy practicality, often gathering near Rabbit Bay to watch the ice shift or the summer light linger long into the evening across the water. Within the protected boundaries of Williams, the natural world remains largely undisturbed, preserving a quietude that feels ancient and indifferent to the hurried progress of the mainland. The legacy of the island is etched into the very dolomite it sits upon, a place where the economy of the present—centered on outdoor recreation and local trade—still echoes the industrious, extractive spirit of those who first cleared the timber and quarried the shore.

About This Drummond Island Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Drummond Island, Michigan. Coordinates: 46.020546, -83.733123. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.

Detailed location data for Drummond Island includes the ZIP code (49726), telephone area code (906), county seat of Chippewa County (Sault Ste. Marie), and school district assignment.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.

Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
