At level 103 two Champion questlines are available:
1. Recruiting Rexxar, Survival Skills & Survive the Night, which give Champion: Rexxar that grants the Champion follower [champion=743].
2. Calling Hilaire Home and Bite of the Beast, which gives Champion: Beastmaster Hilaire that grants the Champion follower [champion=744].
To unlock these, you'll first need to complete a seemingly unrelated short quest chain in Val'sharah, offered by [npc=107317] at Trueshot Lodge at 41.7 59.99 who gives you the breadcrumb: Lending a Hand. Turn this in to [npc=107372] and do Rising Troubles and Assassin Entrapment. At this point, [npc=113325] should appear beside [npc=107372] and offer you Urgent Summons.
Note that [npc=113325] didn't appear for me until I'd obtained all three artefact weapons.
[npc=107425] is in Highmountain at Cliff's Edge, which is 200 yards NW of The Witchwood flight point at 36.73 35.39. For those without coordinates, that's on the first E of Edge on the map. Hints: You only need one piece of wood per quest to light the fire, berries aren't necessary, you only need four pieces of cooked meat to survive "overnight".
[npc=107316] is Stormheim, just North of Weeping Bluffs, about 300 yards North of the nearest flight path at Skyfire Triage Camp. Hint: Deliver Zoarg's Head to [npc=107460], as [npc=107316] really doesn't want it!

Just to clarify NessieMO,s first comment where he notes that Snowfeather did not appear until i'd obtained all three artifacts.
You do NOT have to have all 3 artifact weapons to have Snowfeather show up. The only thing you need is one artifact to receive the Lending a Hand quest. After Rising Troubles and Assassin Entrapment are complete, Snowfeather will show up a few moments after you hand in those two quests into Hudson Crawford. When you return to Emmarel Shadewarden you will receive both quests from her. Mine both showed as "?" marks where the two champions quests were located. This was done with just the MM weapon on one hunter, and again with the MM and BM artifacts together on another. Hope this clears up the confusion on needing more than one artifact.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Assassin Entrapment
Black Rook invaders are still targeting our farms and homes, even though there's not much left to pillage. We had hoped that once they cleared us out that the attacks would stop, but it seems those mindless ghouls will follow any orders given by their commander.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Calling Hilaire Home
With so many in need of our help, it may be time to call in some of our scouts in the field. One such scout is a huntress by the name of Hilaire. Although she abandoned her clan long ago to join our order, she still feels a need to watch over them.
