Alone Season 9: Meet the Contestants

Alone is a reality TV show where 10 people battle for $500,000 in the wild. The ninth season premieres, on May 26th, at 9 PM ET/PT. Discovery+ distributes and airs Alone Season 9. Alone appears to be similar to other survivalist reality shows but the primary difference is that the show’s participants are exactly that: Alone. There was no camera crew, no teams, and no producers in the vicinity. Only the woods and their tools, as well as their survival skills, will keep them going through the days. The ninth season is set in Labrador, Canada. So let’s find out the Alone Season 9 Contestants’ names and which ten items they chose to take on their survival trek to Labrador’s isolated wilderness valley. Alone Season 9: Meet the Contestants

Hometown: Earlysville, Virginia
Profession: Prescribed Fire Practitioner, Regenerative Agriculturalist, Leatherworker

Tom’s father was a game ranger and conservation biologist in South Africa. Tom’s family travelled to numerous isolated locations. Tom’s mum loved wilderness. Combining naturalist and nurturer planted adventure in Tom’s heart.

Soon, he was hunting Whitetail, Wild Turkey, Squirrels, Rabbits, Raccoons, Catfish, Dove, Duck, wild plants, and elusive mushrooms. Tom’s father died of Parkinson’s in late summer 2019, and his hunting guide Tracy Powers died of cancer in 2021. Alone is the culmination of these events, a chance to respect his influences and mentors and test and humble the man he will become. In a world struggling from conflict, climate change, and unknown viruses, there’s a chance to start over where we all began. Tom brought ten items on his survival trip to Labrador, Canada:
