One way to be comfortable in a site like DutchmanSport shows is to put some levelers under the rear tires (in his situation). Run them up to get the rears level with the front. Then, the trailer is only on a slope for the front tires, not the rear. Good chocks, and the tire won't have room to move.
With the corner stabilizer and tongue jack extended and firm, you have even less chance for the trailer to move.
I set up on a slope steeper than DutchmanSport, with a shorter, single-axle trailer. I used chocks, and used every one of my 4 pkgs of Lynx Levelers, all under the tongue jack and front stabilizers. Had a 70 mph wind come through the first night. As we were 20' from a cliff into a canyon, I didn't sleep will that night. Next morning, I inspected everything, and nothing appeared to have moved at all. Chocks and firm stabilizers worked wonderfully to keep the trailer in place. I imagine the cheap chocks helped, also.
