Another Anderson leveler user here. They make it so easy that it's almost cheating.

I carry an assortment of stuff.

2 sets of lynx levelers
multiple 2 foot and 1 foot long 4x4
multiple 2 foot 2x10 and 2x12
assorted chunks of 2x4 and 1x4

In the picture I already have some in use for the front landing gear. I carry more than I need and lend it out or give it away as needed. I think I have enough 4x4 to crib up both trailer axles or one truck axle if needed.

No way! Fire wood comes from trees, once it's been milled down like that if would be a crime to burn it. And you never know when you'd need some of that stuff to level out the camper.

but once the logs are made square they do not roll out of the fire.

Easy to say and live with - up to the point where the only campsite is slanted and you're one board short of having enough to get it level because you burned a couple last week.. Just joking

Then you simply dig a hole on the high side!

There's always more than one way to kill a rat.

Hate to continue the thread drift, but I don't dig holes, shovels have handles and I have a great aversion to anything with a handle, other than a mug.
I do agree that there are more than one way to kill at rat and the only they have in common is that the rat doesn't like any of them

I dig holes either. I follow the "Leave No Trace" rule as closely as I can.

In your case, then, we'll just let the air out of the high side tires. That should be good for three or four inches.



Killin' rats one at a time...

Hey, that's not a bad idea. Wish I had thought of that!

Good thing I have an onboard air compressor.
