A camper was airlifted to hospital when she went to the toilet in the dark and plunged 40ft down a cliff.
The woman was camping with friends at the Cae Du campsite in Rhoslefain in Wales and had left her tent to go to the toilet at 1.30am.
But she became disorientated without a torch and instead plummeted off the beach cliff. Friends of the woman raised the alarm an hour later when she failed to return to the tent.
A spokeswoman for the campsite said: "She went to the toilet in the early hours of Friday morning.
"A friend was supposed to go with her with a light but she went on her own. She fell right off the campsite. It is a long way down. The friends raised the alarm an hour after."
Cae Due is located on the west coast of Wales The woman was discovered at the foot of cliffs of campsite, near the village of Rhoslefain.
An RAF search and rescue helicopter was sent to the scene and took the woman to Ysbyty Gwynedd Hospital in Bangor.
A spokeswoman for Wales Air Ambulance said the patient was transferred to University Hospital of North Staffordshire in Stoke-on-Trent on Saturday.
She said: "RAF Search & Rescue went to this mission, however the WAA crew later transferred the patient to another hospital due to the nature of her injuries.
"Our Caernarfon-based air ambulance conveyed an adult female from Ysbyty Gwynedd, Bangor, yesterday (August 31) at 10.50am to Stoke hospital, arriving at 11am."
The Cae Du campsite has been situated on the remote beach cliff since the 1930s.
"The lights from the toilet block were shining all the way on the path to their tent," the campsite spokeswoman said.
"Their tent was near the toilet. We can't understand it.
"The campsite has been going since the 1930s and nothing like this has ever happened before. We are just glad she is alive and that's the most important thing."
The Cool Camping guide describes Cae Du as "the campsite of your dreams".
It adds: "'Idyllic' is a word that is used far too often, but it sums up the situation of Cae Du as no other word can."
