You might want to put blocks/metal plate, etc underneath the jack legs before raising on dirt. You should try to keep the camper somewhat level. I'm sure others will chime in, but in general, the front is supposed to be higher than the back. Once you pulll out, lower it back down instead of keeping it up in the air for more stability off truck.
X 2, also IF possible its a bit easier when slope runs in-line with the length of the truck vs a side to side slope. The uneven ground of a side to side slope can often cause the camper (when raising) to shift to one side of the truck bed due to gravity and the pendulum effect. Either way, hopefully the slope is not too severe.
Good Luck!
