The southern reaches of Lopez Island are defined here by a deeply indented coastline of bays and harbors, where the settlement of Richardson serves as a primary coastal hub. Surveyed just as the United States entered the second World War, the map illustrates a landscape of rural school districts, including the Center Sch, Lopez Sch, and Mud Bay Sch, which anchored the island's small communities. To the south, the isolated Smith Island National Wild Life Refuge stands alone in the Juan de Fuca Strait, marking a critical navigation point near the convergence of several county boundaries.
