1998 Map of Richardson
USGS Topo · Published 2002About this map
Richardson stands as a primary coastal landing on the southern tip of Lopez Island, situated where the Middle Channel meets the Strait of Juan de Fuca. This late-twentieth-century survey illustrates a landscape defined by maritime navigation and conservation, featuring the San Juan Islands Nat Wildlife Refuge across numerous offshore rocks and islands like Long Island and Charles Island. On San Juan Island to the west, the San Juan Island National Historical Park preserves the area surrounding Mt Finlayson, while the bathymetry reveals the underwater topography of the Salmon Bank. Interior development is concentrated along corridors like Fisherman Bay Road, leading toward the Lopez Island Airport and a local School, reflecting the island's transition into a community supported by both local industry and its position within the San Juan archipelago.
