I do a lot of solo camping that is mostly at unimproved recreation sites with some being tight spots to back the trailer. I never have to ask for spotter assistance but utilize 2 x 2' foot lengths of 2x4 for reference.
One length of 2x4 is set crosswise at the back of the camp parking spot which represents the furthest/deepest I can back the trailer to.
The other length of 2x4 is set parallel to either the applicable left or right tire and represents where exactly the trailer should sit width wise in relation to the camp parking spot.
With this method, it takes zero time to get the trailer backed in and many people who have seen my method, think it is great.
I do that on the farm when backing the grain trucks up to a auger.
