* EverythingMakesAMushroom: Part of the challenge is for the teams to put together a proper rescue fire. Izzy creates a potent firestarter from tree sap and sand and warns the others to stand back as she chucks it into the small fire they've got going. The warning is worthwhile, because when the firestarter is ignited, it generates a double-capped mushroom which height reaches up to Chris's helicopter. The Screaming Gophers win that challenge.
