Poldi Waldmann-Moloney's Alone Season 13 Gear List: All 10 Items

Spoiler note: this covers Poldi Waldmann-Moloney's status in the still-airing Alone Season 13.

Poldi Waldmann-Moloney, 24, is a whitewater kayaking instructor from Hokitika, New Zealand, and the youngest contestant in the Season 13 cast. She is also a skilled bow hunter who spends roughly 150 days a year stalking game, which shows in the item she prioritized for the show's first World Championship format: a bow, dropped alongside nine other castaways into the Richardson Mountains of Canada's Northwest Territories, inside the Arctic Circle, competing for a $500,000 prize and the title of first-ever Alone World Champion. One sourcing note: season 13 gear lists so far come from a single detailed piece of pre-season coverage rather than multiple confirmed sources, so treat the specifics as reported until the season fills in the record.

As of the most recently aired episode, Waldmann-Moloney had not been eliminated. Her placement and days lasted are not yet recorded in our data, consistent with still being in the field. Full season context is on our Season 13 guide; her own page is here.

The full list

Like the rest of this cast's gear entries in our data, Waldmann-Moloney's ten items are recorded at the category level, with no brand or model attached to any of them.

Item	Brand / model	Why it mattered
Cooking pot	Not recorded	Boiling water and cooking whatever she caught
Saw	Not recorded	Faster timber processing for shelter and fire
Bow and arrows	Not recorded	Her core hunting tool, backed by two decades of practice
Fishing line and hooks	Not recorded	Backup protein from nearby water
Ax	Not recorded	Heavier wood work an already-loaded saw slot cannot cover
Multitool	Not recorded	General repair and small fixes
Ferro rod	Not recorded	Fire starting
Paracord	Not recorded	Shelter lashing and camp utility
Snare wire	Not recorded	Passive small game hunting
Sleeping bag	Not recorded	Survival at Arctic Circle temperatures

The bow and arrows and multi-tool pages break down how other contestants across the franchise have used these same two categories, and the sleeping bag page covers the cold-weather ratings past casts have relied on in similarly harsh locations.

A hunter's list, but a familiar one

Waldmann-Moloney's ten categories match Andrew Price's exactly, just in a different sequence. That is a notable overlap given how different their backgrounds are, a bushcraft educator versus a whitewater kayaking instructor and bow hunter, and it suggests the season's cast converged on a fairly standard checklist: one big cutting tool, one small one, two food-gathering methods beyond hunting, and a cold-weather sleep system.

Where her list likely differs from Price's is in execution rather than category. Someone who hunts 150 days a year with a bow is putting real repetition behind that one item, even if the data does not capture brand or draw weight. The other nine items read as support infrastructure for that one skill: fire, shelter, and backup food so the bow does not have to be the only thing keeping her fed.

What to watch for

With most of the Season 13 cast, Waldmann-Moloney included, still active as of the most recent aired episode, her gear list is currently a snapshot rather than a verdict. Her age, 24, makes her the youngest contestant this season, and her bow-hunting background gives her one of the more specialized skill sets in a cast whose ten-item lists otherwise look nearly identical to each other. Every contestant, her included, is bound by the same official rules capping the count at ten items, so any edge she has will come from how she uses that bow rather than what else is in her pack.
