    Be better off leveling out a slightly larger area, and building a short stacked block retaining wall.

    My yard pretty much appears level (for WV, my yard is really level!) but is actually a slight slope towards the back of the yard. What Ben wrote above is exactly what we did when we had our first pool installed years ago. You can see some pics (post #22) in the following thread:
