The camper might not care about the slope, once lifted and horizontal pads don't put stress on the footing, but as AnEv942 pictured, loading it on the truck, where rear sits on the bed while front is still several inches above will always be challenge.
When making "headache wall" behind cabin can be one of the options, I would rather think about dropping the camper with big gap behind the cabin and re position it later on flat street.

I was forced to use this pad in Tennessee which has a "slight" incline after I declined the other "slight" incline site I'd booked. No way I was trying the booked one. Hey it's Tennessee.
No way I'd have tried the second one without our hosspads. They helped by allowing jack feet to dig into the rubber more on the uphill side and lock them down. It didn't cut into them but I'm sure would if tilted enough.
I have the same situaton at home with uphill slope but since I have a gravel drive i can dig out a layer of gravel for hosspads to lie horizontal, so no problem as long as front of camper is kept higher than the rear. I wish driveway was flat! What we need are ball & socket joints against the ground!
As long as it's all the same slope for the length you need for the whole process not that big of deal to loud/unload for our Wolf Creek. My drive drops about 20" in 30 feet I have.
Wow- Now I know Im a woos, I wouldn't even consider let alone attempt.
Our jacks are 10 1/2' apart, feet are ร5 1/2". If I were able to get camper up, jacks vertical, feet would be 1/2" off at front edge, Which wouldn't happen, something would yield.
The entire camper would have to be raised approx. 10 1/2" at front jacks just to get level before lifting. Add another 2" to raise above rear of bed that's almost 48"...(from the 36" truck bed height). Fairly sure extended height would be beyond our jacks travel. But if it cleared, setting at that height at that angle, doubt I could get the truck out from under fast enough. Getting back on truck seems might be even more entertaining.
Just to visualize
