		The lower or southern peninsula is bounded N. by lakes Michigan and Huron and the Straits of Mackinac, E. by lakes Huron, St Clair and Erie, and the St Clair and Detroit Rivers, which separate it from Ontario; S. by Ohio and Indiana, and W. by Lake Michigan.
		The northern part is rugged mountainous "old land," not completely worn down by erosion; and the southern part is a portion of the old coastal plain, whose layers contain salt, gypsum and some inferior coal.
		Lake Huron on the east and Lake Michigan on the west of the lower peninsula are each 5811 ft. above sea-level, and Lake Superior on the north of the upper peninsula is 602 ft. above sea-level.

		Large tributaries flowing into the lake include the Mississagi, Wanapitei, Spanish, and French rivers from Ont., and the Au Sable and Saginaw rivers from Mich. The N shoreline is irregular, with many bays and inlets; the largest are Georgian Bay and North Channel, which indent the Ont. shore and are nearly landlocked by Manitoulin Isl.
		Huron is part of the Great Lakes–St. Lawrence Seaway system and is navigated by oceangoing and lake vessels that carry cargoes of iron ore, grain, coal, limestone, and other goods.
		The principal lakeshore cities are Port Huron, Mich., and Sarnia, Ont., at the lake’s outlet; Owen Sound, Midland, and Parry Sound, Ont.; and Bay City, Alpena, and Cheboygan, Mich. The waters of the lake are relatively unpolluted; commercial and sport fishing is important, and several resorts are located along the lake shore.

	Michigan Highways: M-35 - The Highway Henry Ford Stopped
		While M-35 from Negaunee to L'Anse via the Huron Mountains was officially "determined" as a state trunkline in 1919, it was not until 1926 that work was completed on a major portion of the route in Marquette Co and from 1928-32 saw similar work completed on the Baraga Co portion.
		To help his cause—that of gaining membership in the Huron Mountain Club—Ford purchased additional acreage in Marquette County adjacent to the HMC holdings including land along the proposed route of M-35.
		The uncompleted portion of the highway through the Hurons was cancelled and, within a decade, the entire route of M-35 from US-41/M-28 (between Negaunee and Marquette) to US-41 at L'Anse was removed from the state trunkline system.
