Leveling site for seasonal camping
First post! We are getting ready to park our TT on a seasonal site for the first time. It's a natural site (not a slab). Seems fairly level but has anyone ever leveled the site before bringing their T...

Like a house, it starts with a good foundation beginning with concrete blocks, 10" or 12" on spots leveled just for them. I would not worry about leveling the whole site when most of it is under the trailer.
Building on the blocks, the less use of the leveling jacks the better, I would go up to a point where very little weight is on the wheels. Best if leveling jacks are not used at all but weight is taken by the block pedestals at each corner of the frame topped off with wood between top block & frame.
Depending on the length of the trailer pedestals forward or aft of the wheels might be needed to eliminate movement in the middle.
I use this same method for blocking my 13,000lb 32' boat. Four weight bearing points under the keel & jack stands at the sides to keep it balanced on the keel. It is as solid to walk on as a concrete dock.
