Description

Mount Drum is not the tallest peak in the area, but it protrudes 9,000ft above the tundra to make for a dramatic and aesthetic peak. Mount Drum is a stratovolcano that last erupted about 600,000 years ago and sloughed its southern flank. Mount Drum was first climbed by Heinrich Harrer, Keith Hart and George Schaller, via the North Ridge in 1954.
