It looks like they are rescuing a dummy from the crevasse.

Okay...we are looking for a chocolate making facility IN Zermatt...over top of a grocery store perhaps?? ??? Not a shop per se, more of a production place.

Detour clip!

I can't see the clip because of some geographic reason? Why?  :'(
You did very well, Jet & Cord... You still smiled and showed respect to each other as a team, even when you were eliminated...
So... now go Gary & Mallory!! Win for the cowboys!!

They usually block it for non American viewers for some odd reason. Peach will put it on Youtube soon and you can see it then.  :)

Thanks, Prophet. Based on the perspectives (Matterhorn, Klein Matterhorn and Breithorn), it looks like the Search Detour might be in the area above Trockener Steg. Kmz attached.

Thanks sox 15!! And :welcome:


Thanks!  :waves:

Wow...I guess I need to be literal when I post here.  I should have said, "speculate".  I assumed it was Zev/Justin digging deep in the snow because it looked like 2 guys to me.  So, to calm down the posters, I "speculate".  Haha  I also "speculated" that it was a pit stop.  From those happy faces on the Globetrotters, I "speculated" they were running to a pit stop.  So now...notice my posts in the single digits.  Cut me some slack!    :)

Detour options:
Rappel: Kent/Vyxsin, Kisha/Jen
Search: Zev/Justin, Gary, Mallory

Globetrotters unknown. (probably search, I can't imagine them fitting in the crevasse)

I am not sure what Gary and Mallory did for sure... They were seen in both Red and Green Jackets.  It could be that they all started with Red and then got green if they are doing the crevasse.  There is always the possiblility they switched detours too...

We see Gary at a scene saying " I think he is going to make it", laughing as he is saying it. He is obviously referring to the dummy they have to find underneath the snow.

Here's the picture CBS has on their homepage today:


Not sure why they are using a picture from last week. :duno:

Okay - what about Fuchs Bakery Zermatt - http://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&source=web&cd=3&ved=0CCQQFjAC&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.fuchs-zermatt.ch%2Ffuchs-zermatt%2Fhome-1-en%2Ffuchs-bakery-2013-the-flavours-of-zermatt&ei=SVW7TcGuKYaltweHuOXWBQ&usg=AFQjCNFuCU_yLc1UlHt6KaZMZcWZTc9b1w  
If you select portrait, then heart - there is one pic that has the same wall tile as seen in the roadblock

Here is another bakery: Biner Bakery Zermatt- They have several shops around Zermatt which could cause some confusion for teams looking for the one with the production facility in it : http://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&source=web&cd=1&ved=0CBcQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.biner.ch%2F&ei=7DW8TdDWH4mGtweqxpi7BQ&usg=AFQjCNFdcpwOopETrbVLGLM59Iscs_zNvA

I know we had the rescue thing in spoilers somewhere. :lol:

Both sides of the detour appear to me to be pretty common alpine search and rescue techniques. Search in a crevasse for a dummy and rescue it. Or search in simulated avalanche field for a dummy and rescue it. Hard to tell where any team is going just from the walking part. Appears the helicopters take them all to the same approximate place on the glacier and then they can decide at the last moment or at least they can decide while still in the air.

The avalanche field seach/rescue, reminds me of TAR11 in Argentina. Just after Rob/Amber were eliminated, teams had to go up a ski lift and search a glacier/snowfield for a buried clue, using the same technique they are using in this episode. I think in TAR11, it was just the route marker to fly to Africa though becuase all teams had to do the same thing and both teammates did it together.

Looks to me that Gary has the yellow/lime green windbreaker over a navy blue coat and Mallory has the windbreaker over a red coat. I dont know how much the color scheme has to do with a particular task. All teams appear to me to be wearing a yellow harness and safety pack on their backs though.
