Carry It: In Botswana, each Team member must balance three items on their head: a basket filled with corn, a bucket of water and a bundle of logs. Next, without using their hands, they must carry their load to a cooking area 70 yards away. While the balancing act was difficult, Teams that could master the technique would finish quickly. Only Uchenna & Joyce completed this option.

Milk It: For Milk It, Teams must choose goats from a pen, tie them up and milk them until theyve filled a ten-ounce cup. While the task appeared simple, milking the goats was not as easy as it looked and could take Teams a long time to finish. Rob & Amber, Brian & Greg, Meredith & Gretchen, Lynn & Alex and Ron & Kelly milked goats on this leg.

In Botswana, this Roadblock required one person to navigate their Teams vehicle through a crocodile-infested crossing on the Khwai River. Then, continuing through the bush, the driver must choose a driving path by removing the marking posts along the way. However, trees felled by elephants blocked each path. The racer must remove logs in the path, then drive to the next clue. Alex, Rob, Greg, Meredith, Ron and Uchenna crossed the river for their Teams.
