See the photo's below taken from the cluebox at the bottom of the hill. It is clearly a route marker

Note that in the background while Mel and Mike are opening the clue envelope, no cheeses are by the shed with the man in the tan coat.  So they must be one of the first teams there.  Later on in another shot of Victor and Tammy running back up the hill, and Mel is on the ground with a broken carrier, we can see the same man by the shed and at least two piles of two cheeses are stacked against the wall.  Later, we have Mel and Mike completing the task and behind them are four stacks of four cheeses each, so we can determine that if Mel and Mike were first at the task, they are now in fifth place when the complete it.

Kiwi Jay:
1st to 5th?!

Four stacks means they're in fourth place! :duno: I'm thinking...

Taking the 0903-1355 train
Tammy/Victor, Michael/Mark (#1 or #2)
Luke/Margie (#3, arriving Murren with Mike/Mel)
Mike/Mel (#4, based on gingerman28's observation)

Taking the 1042-1428 train
LaKisha/Jennifer, Brad/Victoria, Cara/Jamie, Christie/Jodi, Jennifer/Preston, Amanda/Kris
Cara/Jamie, LaKisha/Jennifer and Brad/Victoria arrive together.
Jennifer/Preston and Amanda/Kris arrive together.
Jodi/Christie and Jennifer/Preston end together.

Taking the train to Sequesterville
Linda/Steve

Is 100min (just) enough to clear six people on the bungee?

I think that Tammy/Victor and Mark/Mike got to the cheese task first. When we see Mike/Mel and Luke/Margie, the first two teams are climbing the hill to the cheese or at the cheese. So in the vid caps all those teams take two cheese wheels a trip, which means they have to climb the hill a second time. Jamie/Cara take 4 cheese wheels down first trip. So I would think that Mel/Mike arrived 3rd and got passed by Luke/Margie and Cara/Jamie.

I think they're in fourth place?
