This episode takes place in Zermatt, Switzerland.
Teams must choose between two Detours:
SEARCH and RESCUE. (slowhatch has the location in spoilers)
Both tasks fly the teams by helicopter
to a remote spot on the glaciers.
(company, registration, and heliport location in spoilers)
In search, they use an avalanche beacon finder (maker in spoilers)
to rescue a buried person.
They must "dig deep"
for this challenge.
Doing this one are Zev and Justin, and Gary/Mallory.
Zev says: "Let's do Search...I think it will be easier."
Famous last words or a wise decision?
In RESCUE, teams must rappel (NOT REPEL!! ) into a deep crevasse
in the ice, and hoist a "victim" to the surface using a pulley system.
Doing this Detour are K/J and K/V. The Trotters are unknown...
Teams then proceed to a kitchen where they must make a chocolate mold of our beloved gnome.
Conflict arises and teams seem at each other (Mika anyone??)
Will this be a "flash in the pan" or have a lasting effect??
Teams travel
to the Pitstop where someone WILL go home.
Who comes last? Who is eliminated??
Find out tonight in the shadow of the Matterhorn!
