In the US Pacific Northwest and other mountainous regions, cable yarding using portable steel towers is a common harvesting system in steep terrain. These systems are expensive and can be unsafe if improperly rigged. For both economic and safety considerations, configurations are used that ensure that the system can sustain the forces applied during yarding operations. We present a computer-based application, GuylinePC, for evaluating the guyline and anchor loads resulting from an applied load. Our model extends the usability and scope of a model previously developed by other researchers. Specifically we (1) provide a more modern graphical user interface, (2) use optimization methods to determine equilibrium states, and (3) illustrate the capability of the program to be used in design. We briefly discuss the analytical model and software application and present a design problem. The program is intended to improve a forest engineer's understanding of cable yarding systems.
