About eighty percent of all larger lakes and more than sixty percent of second- and third-order streams in the drift plains of southcentral Michigan overlie preglacial bedrock valleys. The longest axes of linear lakes generally follow the trend of the underlying buried bedrock valleys; linear assemblages of lakes always overlie such features in the subsurface. Even in areas where lakes are largely absent, streams are partially adjusted to an angular drainage pattern associated with the buried bedrock surface. Segments of the surface drainage system cut across topographic trends and join at high angles
