Yep, what Paco said. I've found that you can get the best results by seeking the "dead air" underneath the swirling cauldron, but it puts you close to the rocks. You have to leave yourself an "out" and be prepared to break down and away from the mountains. Never approach a ridge from 90 degrees, approach from about 45 degrees instead so that your don't have so far to turn to get out of Dodge if you need to.
