The paragliding task is a repeat task last used in Bavaria in season 14, leg 2 as a roadblock.

Historically these legs atop a mountain are NELs though given how weird this season has been I wouldn't place any stock on precedent.

Also wouldn't the team whose clue flew down the side of a mountain ( :snicker:) be penalized for having to get another clue? If the penalty puts them in last I'd argue that would be the surprising finish.

Aren't we quite sure about this being a NEL? ???

Anyway, I want it to be, because I predict the leg will be rather linear and Scott & Blair or Erin & Joslyn will come in last. :(

I am kinda worried... Do caps38-44 show a paraglide crash/wrong place landing.... ???

That could knock a team way down timewise.

Just a stray observation... could the paraglide Roadblock be the first task of the leg? We don't really see any teams near each other on the other parts of both previews...

Based on the cap post-episode, here's who dropped the clue off the mountain:

It seems like it's at the Roadblock... would Dana be told to do it again or given a penalty?

Anyone feel free to add pics, the racers are sharing their own on social media if anyone has time to snag some?

Also...long ago and far away when I taught Mountaineering medical rescue...I have NEVER heard the word ferret used as a rescue device. Has anyone or did CBS screw up? ???

A Yeti? Shouldn't they be in the Himalayas for that?

Also, it's another flag task. If there's a memory task at the end, I'm betting it will be about flags.

I'm hoping they mean Via Ferrata (loosely translated to Iron Roads) - here: http://www.chamonix.net/english/mountaineering/via-ferrata
Otherwise were going to see the interesting task of trying to put a saddle on a ferret...
