On Saturday 11 July 2015 about 3 pm the Westpac Rescue Helicopter was tasked to attend the Freycinet Peninsula, south of Wineglass Bay an injured male walker.

The 44 year old male from Hobart had been walking along the track when he slipped and dislocated his shoulder. His walking partner preformed basic first aid and notified emergency services by mobile phone.

The helicopter flew to the location and winched a paramedic rescue crew into the scene.  The paramedic treated the walker and the pair were then winched back into the helicopter and flown to Hobart in a satisfactory condition.
