This has to be the coolest way I've seen to visualize the wind.

A Wind Map is a very useful item to have at hand, following a bean feast around the old camp fire.

Enables one to locate a safe spot upwind of the disturbance.

That is pretty cool, it looks like in certain areas, you can even see wind shear.
