Since we're on a mountaintop with ledge/rocks popping out of the ground I figured it couldn't sink much before it hit something solid. Wrong. It pretty much began to sink immediately to the point I could only see the tops of the leveling ramps. It's a pretty decent slope so I'd never be able to get it out.
