On Friday morning July 26th the Ornge med-evac helicopter landed on the access road to the ferry, where it was met by the ambulance for a patient exchange. The ferry’s load of vehicles and passengers was unable to disembark until the air ambulance left, about half an hour after the ferry arrived.
A 13-year-old girl was seriously injured in a cliff-jumping accident at the Grotto, in Bruce Peninsula National Park. The Coast Guard responded in their high-speed Zodiac and brought her to the Marine Operations Base in Tobermory, where she was transferred to an ambulance. The ambulance brought her to the Ornge med-evac helicopter, which airlifted her to Hamilton.
