Fossil Formations [Natural Attractions], Drummond Island. Dolomite rock formation containing 350-million- year- old coral and shellfish fossils. Fossils, are commonly found in the exposed limestone of the eastern U.P. and Straits-Charlevoix area, are especially abundant on the beach at this point on Drummond's north shore.

Maxton Plains [Natural Attractions], Drummond Island. The limestone bedrock is right at the surface, almost like pavement in its flat expanse. Plants grow in the cracks, creating four to eight inches of spongy soil on top that supports the rare alvar grasslands and alpine plants. To survive here, these plants must be alkaline and able to withstand sudden alternations from dry to soaking conditions. These boring-looking grasses can burst into bloom within a day, turning into a sight of great if subtle beauty. Alvar grasslands exist in only a few places in the world including nearby Manitoulin Island, Pelee Island, and Latvia. Much of the plains is Nature Conservancy property. Mountain bikers are prohibited from biking on the fragile, thin soils.
