Looks good, man!
If you're limited on "real" rocks, but want more elevation - concrete chunks make a great base-layer, especially if you have enough rock to hide it.

Dirt is also a great option. That would allow you to shape the piles more to your liking and allow you to partially bury the rocks for a more natural look

I guess you could also build wooden subframes to suport the rocks, you could build a prety good grade with something like that. Just something i thought of. Hopefully next year i will be able to build a scaler course in my back yard, well of the house i plan to buy next year. Maybe it will be as nice as yours oneday.

Any update pictures? Done anymore to it? Water hazzard? lol.
