SIMSAR August 13, 2005

A simulated SAR exercise was planned for Saturday, August 13, 2005.  In efforts to assist in the search for a missing Marathon, Ontario pilot, the exercise would consist of a "Track Crawl" from Thunder Bay to Wawa via Nipigon, Terrace Bay, and Marathon with a stop in Wawa for food and fuel.  The following are some photos of the exercise:
