USGS Topo · Published 1939About this map
The Canadian River cuts a deep diagonal through the Panhandle landscape, where high plains give way to the complex drainage of McBride Canyon and Mortons Canyon. Surveyed in the mid-1930s, this area reflects the intersection of traditional Texas ranching and the burgeoning petroleum industry. The small community of Sanford sits near the river, while the presence of Oil City to the northeast highlights the regional energy boom that transformed the territory during this era.
