Default comp level crawling course design suggestions please

I have a small mound approx 50'x60' 8' tall on my property, its in a flood area so the wife said I can use it to build a crawling course. What I am looking for is suggestions. I have basically an unlimited supply of rock in all sorts of sizes from pebbles up to 3' square. What kind of features make for a good course? How long should runs be? How wide should runs be? And if anyone has pictures of their favorite course/runs please include them. And yes I have searched the forums and looks at pics. I am hoping to be ready to host a comp next summer. So his is your chance to design it your way.

Personally, I think elevation changes are fun. Rather than just having a flat area with a bunch of rocks, have some ledges, hills, and off-camber areas too.

Make lines that you think are too hard. Almost impossible. Steep drops into steepclimbs, tight corners, tire eating holes. Most everyone likes tough climbs and hard to control freefall decents.
