Arthur,
My experience from the October snow storm a couple years ago. Our losses were
from line posts, not ends. Driven posts did not break or go over, where augured
did. Line post spacing under 30' were fine, all failures were with spacings at
or over 30'. Hillsides more vulnerable than flat

In theory, trellis rows could be “as long as you want them to be,” but in
reality there are almost certainly limits to the amount of tension the
end-posts can handle without coming out of the ground.
Consider the worst
We have rows over 1100 feet long but installed an 'H' brace at about 400' -
500' to add stability.
