Katie follows behind him. The gnomes are wedged in the mountain.

Bates and Anthony are done first, but must now go to a train station and wait for a train where other teams may catch up.

Now, in what may be called a switchback, teams have to use a snow sled, climb a mountain to pick up a 50 pound cheese. Bates & Anthony have been ahead since the beginning of this leg. Bates & Anthony get their cheese and go down the hill.

Caroline & Jennifer have difficulties transporting the cheese.

Joey & Meghan arrive, with Chuck & Wynona just behind them. These teams have been the last two teams and have struggled throughout this leg.

Mona & Beth are team number two.
Max & Katie are team number three.

Chuck & Wynona arrive in fifth place. They incur a 30 minute penalty because they did not carry the cheese down according to the clue. Joey and Meghan get to the Pit Stop, and are the last team to arrive.
Since Chuck & Wynona have incurred a penalty, Joey and Meghan are still in the race and are team number five.

Due to the penalty, Chuck & Wynona are officially the last team to arrive and are eliminated from the race.
