For a high power coil,  I'd use four to six 10 ft 
copper plated steel ground rods pounded at about 
a 45º angle with all their tops being at a center 
point.   Even in a very cold area, like here in 
Colorado in the winter,  that should be below the 
frost line sufficiently as the ends would still 
be 7ft down at that angle.   I read where one guy 
liked to pound the rod about halfway into the 
ground and the 'wallow out' the hole a little and 
remove the rod and fill the hole with a good 
electrolyte solution(copper sulfate eg) then 
after that soaks in...maybe even repeat the 
filling a few times,  then pound the rod all the 
way down.    I have a disadvantage where I 
live...in the mountains.....there a great reason 
they are called the ROCKY mountains  haha.  It's 
hard to pound ten ft rods through the rocks.   I 
do have one decent possibility for a good ground 
though....the leach field for the septic 
tank.   It has a lil problem and one small area 
stays wet...even though it gets fairly cold 
here.   I might have to buy a few 50lb bags of 
copper, potassium or magnesium sulfate and pour 
them onto that wet spot and let it diffuse 
through the whole field.  I imagine that could 
make for a sufficiently conductive ground.  The 
copper sulfate might have to be flushed down the 
sink or toilet though....it could kill the roots 
of the plants nearby if I just poured the 
crystals onto the ground.....that would not be 
the case with potassium or magnesium sulfate though.

Physics:
  Once the water is no longer liquid, the ions that
allow current flow are trapped, more or less immobile.
If natural warming, or warming from current from coil
melts water around 'ground electrode', thing simprove.
