[QUOTE="Idaho Sawyer, post: 802694, member: 22006"] Your photo is the down draft (I referred to them as burbles) that I am referencing in my original post. From my experience there is no updraft in the lee side, clockwise air. As far as detecting it, My first go to would be thermals, if those aren't present, your next best bet would practicing in those conditions and reconizing those lee side conditions. I will be on the lookout for them from here on out and put that mental slide in the shooting book for future situations that resemble it. The pressure shift in the Kestrel I find interesting because it is the same air, so to speak, it is justing swirling off the ridge, I understand if your losing or gaining elevation, but if your ele. stays the same your pressure shouldn't fluctuate with moving air (unless a front is coming or going). Maybe someone else can chime in here and share [/QUOTE]
