This technical report presents an analysis of a skyline partial cutting operation conducted in British Columbia's Interior Cedar-Hemlock zone. The primary goal was to evaluate the economic and operational feasibility of using a specific cable yarding system to meet modern silvicultural goals in this ecosystem. This report confirmed the importance of careful logging planning and developed productivity functions to help forest engineers predict and optimize the use of single- and multi-span skyline configurations in future partial cuts.
