Default Wood deck - Cedar Vs PT

An ice storm and a 50' tree finished off our deck.

When we rebuild I am wondering about the longevity of
cedar Vs pressure treated wood. Michigan four season
weather. Any idea what the current premium is on the
cedar? Thanks!



PT is ugly and unwalkable.


Cedar or fir are nice, damn the price.

I haave 17 year old vg fir steps, unfinished, still solid. Not a plan
tho. Stained fir is my preference. Never PT. Only for the structure
