Freedom 8 is light on Avy and does not include anything on AIARE which is being used as primary in several Branches ( Everett, Seattle, Tacoma, Foothills, ...)

I would like to see more on avalanche safety. A lot of this topic overlaps with trip planning, navigation and mountain oriented first aid as well as snow travel. The AIARE program stresses checklists and semi-structured decision-making techniques modeled on processes used by aviators and other professionals who operate in hazardous environments. These ideas can easily be applied in other mountaineering contexts as well as in avalanche terrain.
