“...to a height nearly three times that of the Statue of Liberty. Its peak wrests about 30 feet below the surface.”

Statue of Liberty is 305 feet from ground level, so about 900 feet................

It doesn't poke out of the lake.

Lake Superior has an average depth of about 483 feet (147 meters). Its maximum depth is approximately 1,332 feet (406 meters), which is near the eastern end of Grand Island in the northern part of the lake. This area is known as the “Southwest Point of the lake” and is located offshore from the town of Munising, The minimum depth of Lake Superior can vary widely across different areas of the lake, but it generally ranges from a few feet to around 30 feet (9 meters).

And then Wikipedia:

The Superior Shoal is a geologic shoal of approximately 20 square miles (52 km2) located 50 miles (80 km) north of Copper Harbor, Michigan in the middle of Lake Superior, the highest point of which lies only 21 feet (6.4 m) below the lake's surface.[
