Backcountry Ski workout - Snoqualmie Summit West

Well established skin track following the Summit's designated uphill route.
We used the main Pacific crest run to descend -- it had last been groomed two days previous and had  a full day of lift skier traffic,  above freezing temperatures during the day and then below freezing temperatures at night.    Descending the skiing surface was firm and relatively smooth -- but also had small chunks of snow refrozen onto the surface -- so skiing was kinda noisy and bumpy.
