With one week left both in the game’s time and until the finale, the Survivor: Edge of Extinction episode 13 press photos keep tabs on everyone.

The Survivor: Edge of Extinction episode 13 press photos will display stills taken from this week’s program as it will air on television.

Though we’ve only reached Day 31 out of 39 in Survivor: Edge of Extinction, it feels like we have so many loose ends to tie up. Rick Devens remains in the game and is public enemy number one, but now there are 10 members of the jury; each of them is vying for a shot to reenter and fight for a million dollars.

As such, a lot is going on in this penultimate episode, with the Survivor: Edge of Extinction episode 13 press photos doing as much as possible to capture the remaining players, active storylines and shots of the extensive challenges awaiting viewers this week.

Though the promo has made it look like everyone’s out to get Rick, it seems like everyone is standing around camp talking amongst themselves except Aurora. It will be interesting to see if it’s anything more than a coincidence.

Like, what could Gavin and Victoria have to be talking about by themselves if the easy vote of Rick Devens isn’t too obvious? Is there something else afoot?

Like this, right here, is Rick Devens approaching Julie Rosenberg after the others blindsided her at Tribal Council. With six players in the game, the two likely can’t surmount a blindside on their own, but it could be a compelling turn of events if Rick can get Julie on his side.

The Survivor: Edge of Extinction episode 13 Reward Challenge is another obstacle course with a new twist. The first part of the leg has players toss a ball up onto a downward slope while running through a rope maze to catch it on the other side. This is done twice.

The second portion sees players digging underneath a sand-submerged log to crawl to the other side, bringing both balls with them. Thirdly, players must toss their ball onto a narrow, high-up platform to win the reward, with the third portion and actual prize unknown at this time.

Though it was a refreshing idea not to visit the Edge of Extinction last week, it seems inevitable that we do spend some time in the penultimate week of the season.

Here’s Eric Hafemann reportedly bringing back letters the Edgers wrote to themselves before the season started. At least, that’s what the press release insists; who knows if there’s more going on than that.

Though Rick knows he’s the odd man out, he seems to be going about his approach to staying in the game a bit differently in this scene. Perhaps bringing in Lauren, the only former Lesu and Manu player, into the fold will bring the two together out of circumstance, as they are likely the only players stopping an all-Kama finale at this stage.

As you can tell from this establishing shot, there’s a lot going on in this Immunity Challenge. Players will need to balances puzzle pieces across a series of obstacles (including a teeter-totter and a waist-high beam) to bring letters to a final station. The first one to spell out a Survivor phrase wins.

Getting the letters in the first place includes throwing them down a narrow shuffleboard to hit a gong, and for the life of me, I can’t remember where this challenge first appeared. I feel like it’s a modern Survivor challenge, but I couldn’t find it after searching for half an hour online.
