@gijoecam, I have been thinking again about the possibility of turning the trailer around. The site is 80 feet long and ~=32' wide - with a bank on one side, and drop-off on the other. I could conceivably hang the tail out over the drop off to get the trailer jack-knifed - unhitch, and use another vehicle to turn it all the way around. I have an excavator, I was wondering If I could come up with a tow-ball attachment for that (I have seen people parking trailers with forklifts, and it looks super-maneuverable).
But in the end I think I am convinced that backwards is the way to go - 4x4, low range, a set of cameras, and nice and slow. I think I need to get out to a parking lot and do a bunch of reversing practice first, I'm a little rusty.
Thanks for all the advice, I'll post again with the (hopefully good) final results!
Cheers,
Chris.
