I was thinking that the golf course was much more nearer to the hotel. Could the area we see in the preview be the ski slopes? I need to double check but, are the ski slopes near the hotel?

Puddin in the screencaps Rachel and a few others are in a tank the things in the water are lobsters I believe and it seems to be a roadblock??

The creatures in the tank with TK and Rachel look like King Crabs - they are huge!. Since they are picking them up and looking at them and then putting them back they probably have to find a message on the back of one of the crabs.
This is one task of the DETOUR (Phil says so on the voice over).
The other task seems to be something to do with gutting fish (Ron and Chris)
The Ice Climb looks like the ROADBLOCK. We see Chris climbing and Ron cheering her on. Looks to me that the take the boat to the climb site - note that both Chris and Don are wearing life vests while the climb, the same ones that TK and Rachel have on in their scene in the boat.
My guess is that they take the boat to the climb site, find the clue, and one member of team climbs while the other member gets taken to the top of the glacier. Ron is looking down at Chris and you can see the water just under her as she starts the climb.
After the climb I think they get the clue that tells them to take the helicopter (you see one behind Ron on the Glacier) to the next location.

I have also noticed in the past that the first team they show doing a task usually is the first team at the task.
Timeline:
Fly to Alaska
Detour - Ice climb vs. Something with crabs
Road block - Something with skinning salmon
Go to winning location!
The item that is puzzling is: What the heck are Ron, Tk and Don waiting for??? Clearly Ron does the roadblock w/salmon. Are there other tasks that they have to complete this leg?
Also, is the gramps team running to a boat that will take them to the detour? Or from a task that they now have to get the finish line?

I doubt that the DETOUR choice would between finding a King Crab and Climbing an ice wall. They do not seem to be similar tasks. Crabs and Salmon seem to be more likely detour tasks.
In the running shot of Chris and Ron; Chris is wearing a blue outfit. In other shots she is wearing brown. But the blue outfit is the same as she is wearing in the confessional at the end of Ep 10. Go figure.

The vidcap has been bothering me. Why did Rachel drop her stuff and leave TK behind. She's practically running for her life and he's still back at the taxi. Aren't they supposed to stay within a few feet of each other at all times? If this is the race to the end then why is Rachel at full speed and TK has barely moved?

I get the feeling it has something to do with this scene ~
