I have another fence question so I just thought I'd update this old post. Yes, a year later and still working on the fence. Several delays put things off last summer and early this year but we're back at it now. I have just about half the line posts in. We're auguring and tamping each post. I know pushing is faster but I don't have anything capable of the job.
All the corners are in and most braces as well. We used the big 12" posts on the main corners and 9" on other, short run corners. All H braces are 4" x 8'. All corners and braces are round treated. They are braced with cable and gripples. They look great and appear to be capable of holding back a freight train. I don't think they'll be pulling out or heaving.
Line posts are cedar 16' apart.
To my question. I have several spost where it is just to wet for posts and I can't go around. The shortest span I can get between the posts is just under 40' in these places. There is a small creek in the middle but for the most part it is just muck, saturated peat. I think, if I could, I would be able to push a 12' post out of sight.

Some of them only bring their noses down out of the air long enough to look down them anyway. If you are like me you are only doing this old tractor stuff because you enjoy it. You
