Teams must use a mechanical ascender to climb a 45-foot rock wall. Once at the top, they had to find the terrace, where a French legionnaire would give them a medal. After receiving the medal, the teams had to rappel 75 feet down to receive their next clue.
Freddy & Kendra, Hayden & Aaron, Kris & Jon, and Lori & Bolo completed this task.
