The four remaining teams leave Christchurch and fly to Auckland for the leg that will determine the final 3.The teams begin at Inverary sheep station, the previous pit stop and fly to Auckland. Once there, teams witnessed a Maori dance before continuing on with the race. The Fast Forward for this leg required teams to drive to the top of Mount Terawera where they would complete a treacherous volcano "scree" run, a near vertical sprint down a wall of loose volcanic rock to the bottom of a dormant volcano, where the Fast Forward clue would be waiting for them. One team claimed the Fast Forward, checked into the next Pit Stop and automatically became one of the final three teams.Teams were then faced with a Detour, "Drop" or "Climb". All teams chose "Drop" which involved the largest free rappel in the world into an incredibly deep cavern known as "The lost world caves". Teams would find their next clue at the end of the long trail.The race to the Pit Stop was tight with two teams in a close foot race, but one team could not make it in fast enough which resulted in their elimination.

Interview with Margie and Luke from "The Amazing Race"
added by newsBotLuke and Margie Adams
It was the gayest season ever of The Amazing Race, and also one of the best ever. Coincidence? I don't think so. There was father and son Mel and Mike White, who are both gay; sisters Kisha and Jen, (Kisha is a lesbian); one person who apparently isn't out of the closet; and, finally, Luke Adams and his mom Margie.
Luke and Margie were the only team with a gay member to make it to the final three, and while they didn't quite make it over the finish line first, they ran an impressive race — especially considering Luke is deaf, a potential drawback in a race where quick communication can be vital.
While the show never identified Luke as gay, this 24-year-old Coloradan is out and proud — and especially proud of the fact that he's the youngest gay man to ever make it to the final three.
