Deep Creek avalanche n aspect at 7500

avalanche skier triggered remotely in complex terrain (crown below cliffy exposed rocks), no burials as group managed thru safer sloped terrain - N aspect in Deep Creek around 7500ft w slope angle above 35.  

hand pit in slide area observed obvious sugar faceted snow (roughly 1.5+/- feet below) below new dry cold low density storm snow, but providing weak bonding and prone to slide. 

We as a group had skied N aspect roughly 35 degrees a gully west of the triggered avalanche -- no observed faceted or sugary layer below new snow was present and snow profile seemed very stable - hypothesis faceted layer is present where winds had been shielded or just spotty in general.
