A cedar post in my own backyard split clean through after a single hard freeze this winter.

I had to pull it out and reset it with a proper gravel base and a concrete collar, which got me thinking, what's your go-to method for setting posts in areas with extreme freeze-thaw cycles?

Ugh, that's the worst... I've started using those foam post wraps too, they seem to help a lot with the heaving.

Honestly, how many posts actually fail like that though?
