2010 Map of Sanford

About this map

Lake Meredith dominates the landscape north of Fritch, its waters held by the massive Sanford Dam across the Canadian River. This 2010 survey shows a region where industrial activity and recreation exist side-by-side. The Sanford Yake Oil Field and the settlement of Oil City speak to the enduring petroleum economy of the Texas Panhandle, while the Fritch Fortress Picnic Area highlights the importance of the reservoir for local tourism. The terrain is deeply incised by drainages such as Cedar Canyon and Fritch Canyon, which feed into the primary basin. The map provides clear detail of the road network around Sanford, including Ranch Rd 1319 and Phillips Camp Rd, tracing the pathways between residential areas and the surrounding cattle ranches like Yake Ranch. Local history is anchored by the Sanford Cemetery and the more modern Westlawn Memorial Park to the south.
