Rhonda Whitsell, trail name "Scooter", a short solidly-built dirty blonde/brunette first met Crystal Chladek at Ocoee Adventures in Ducktown, Tn. in 1995. Like Crystal, had been through OLTA (Outdoor Leadership Training Academy). A real life version that it could be modeled on can be found here [NOLS] She did the Appalachian Trail (AT) in 1993. She and Crystal become friends and Scooter starts the AT with Crystal in 1997 but is forced to drop out because of bad knees.In 1999 Crystal, by then working at Canyon Tours, needed an experienced rafter and called her. They ended up working together as Grand Canyon tour guides.
