Nanaimo Search and Rescue were among the groups taking part in a training exercise at the Nanaimo Lakes area.
A fictional plane crash scenario was part of the exercise.
Search and rescue volunteers are live tweeting. Follow along here.
Subject is in poor condition with a broken leg. Military SAR techs enroute for evacuation. #SARex http://t.co/XwBbVsqxm9
