It was difficult to get a feel for the movements and timings in a storyboard, so I just planned the basic order of the obstacles and how the squirrel would tackle them. Blocking my scene out in Maya made it much easier to visualize and tweak.

I have now finalized the order of all the obstacles; and got the timing down for the first half of the animation. I have also got some of my key poses and camera angles set; and started thinking about, lighting, texturing.
