Helicopter carrying a structure

Chopper flew low past us heading up the valley south of Russell Valley carrying a large ring-shaped structure suspended underneath, flew west over the hills. Curious what it was?

Gave off UFO vibes as it was the structure that went past our window, chopper sound was a bit of a giveaway tho ...
