Best for intermediate divers, 5-18m, boat entry, moderate current.
The Glenlyon is a freshwater wreck located in Lake Superior, United States. Resting at depths between 5 and 18 metres, the site is accessible by boat only. Divers encounter moderate currents and variable visibility, which can shift significantly depending on local conditions. The wreck structure presents an entanglement risk, requiring careful buoyancy control and spatial awareness. Due to the cold water temperatures, which range from 2 to 13 degrees Celsius throughout the year, a drysuit with appropriate undergarments is strongly recommended for all divers. This site is suited for intermediate divers capable of managing cold water environments and wreck-specific hazards.
