Buoy hoist in La Push
LA PUSH, Wash. - Coast Guard Thirteenth District members and an Army Chinook helicopter from Joint Base Lewis-McChord work together to remove an 11,800 pound navigation buoy from a beach near the Quillayute River mouth in La Push, Monday. The buoy washed ashore on the beach after it broke free from its mooring during a winter storm in 2010. U.S. Coast Guard photo by Petty Officer 3rd Class Nathan W. Bradshaw.

@zindo I agree, it's also impressive how easily the Chinook picks it up and flies off!

Those Chinooks used to haul my bulldozer to fire bases when I was in Nam. Fun to ride in...but...very slow.
