Hi Jerry,

Wouldn't a paved site already be level? Same goes for gravel sites. If you're a conscientious camper (As I am) you put the site back the way your found it so there shouldn't be a problem. Personally, I don't like paved sites, they're WAY too civilized, and usually beyond my budget for a campsite anyway. YMMV.

If your stuck with a paved site you can always raise the bus by parking ON the shovel.

Happy trails,
