The Alma, ON F3 is another 5/31/85 tornado that allegedly caused substantial ground scouring. I'd never been able to find any photos to confirm it (finding photos in general hasn't been easy), but apparently that's what's depicted in the foreground here. Really no way to tell since it's in black and white, unfortunately:
This is pretty close to where some of the worst structural damage occurred, so if there was any scouring, it'd probably be here. A few hundred yards from this spot, the tornado leveled a large building that served as an office for a lakeside resort:
I do have some color photos, but none from this specific area. The closest one to this spot (a mile or so away) only shows a closeup of some small trees snapped off low to the ground:
