Ann Rosenquist's Alone Season 10 Gear List: All 10 Items
2026-05-14
Spoiler note: this covers how Alone Season 10 ended for Ann Rosenquist.
Ann Rosenquist placed ninth in Season 10, lasting 19 days at Reindeer Lake before starvation and heart-related symptoms forced her to tap out. Rosenquist's own page has more on her run, and our Season 10 guide covers the rest of the field.
Rosenquist is an off-the-grid organic farmer and outdoorswoman from Bayfield, Wisconsin, and her gear list is the most conventional in the season: a straight ten-category loadout with no brand names recorded and no unusual substitutions. That background running a farm without reliable utilities is exactly the kind of experience that makes a contestant trust standard tools over specialized ones, since the standard tools are the ones she'd already leaned on for years before the season started.
The full list
| Item | Category | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Sleeping bag | Sleep system | Brand not recorded |
| Saw | Cutting tool | Brand not recorded |
| Snare wire | Trapping | Brand not recorded |
| Paracord | Utility | Brand not recorded |
| Multitool | Utility | Brand not recorded |
| Axe | Cutting tool | Brand not recorded |
| Cooking pot | Cooking | Brand not recorded |
| Fishing line and hooks | Fishing | Brand not recorded |
| Bow and arrows | Hunting | Brand not recorded |
| Ferro rod | Fire starting | Brand not recorded |
Every category here is one of the ten most commonly picked items across the whole franchise, and none carry a specific brand in the recorded research. For the categories themselves, the axe, saw, bow and arrows, and snare wire pages cover how other contestants used the same tools.
What the list says about her run
There's no specialist bet in Rosenquist's ten items, no gill net, no tarp swapped in for a saw, no skipped axe. It's the textbook Alone loadout: two cutting tools, one hunting method, one trapping method, one fishing method, a fire-starting tool, a cold-weather sleeping system, and paracord and a multitool for everything else. An off-the-grid farming background likely made these choices feel obvious rather than experimental.
A conventional gear list didn't translate into a long run. Nineteen days, ending in starvation with heart-related symptoms, points to how physically demanding Reindeer Lake was regardless of what a contestant carried; several of the season's lower-placed finishers cite starvation as their tap-out reason despite having reasonable, food-focused gear on hand. Heart-related symptoms specifically suggest the toll went beyond simple calorie deficit, into the kind of physical strain that no combination of ten items can fully guard against.
How it compares across the season
Rosenquist's 19 days sits near the bottom of the field, ahead of only the tenth-place finisher, and far behind the top five, who cleared 40 days or more. Her list is close to the median across the 101 of 187 recorded Alone contestants who have a gear list at all: an axe, a saw, one hunting weapon, snare wire, and a fishing kit are the most repeated categories in that dataset, and Rosenquist carried all of them.
