Both Lexi duPont and Hedvig Wessel grew up with a passion for skiing, but they found it hard to find other women that were also participating in the sport.  This is what sparked their idea to build a community of women backcountry skiers and snowboarders called Sister Summit. Through Sister Summit, Lexi and Hedvig have built a network of women focused on climbing higher and most importantly having fun while doing it! Check out this Rebel story to learn more about Lexi and Hedvig’s amazing stories.
