55 Hours In Mexico: A Tribute To The Weekend Warrior

Watch: 55 Hours In Mexico: A Tribute To The Weekend Warrior

Take 10 minutes and watch 55 Hours in Mexico by Joey Schusler. If you’re a weekend warrior that sits in front of a computer dreaming of big adventures this film is made for you. Even with the 9 to 5 job, you can still get after it.

This crew of adventurers have 55 hours to climb and ski the Mexican volcano, Orizaba. At 18,491′, Orizaba is the 3rd highest peak in North America (behind Denali and Logan). What could wrong? Or right?

This is the “adventure of a lifetime in a weekend.”

This one kind of reminds me of Frozen Salsa, but with a time limit.

For those with 9 to 5 office jobs, the weekend is a source of freedom and balance. How adventurous can one get in a single weekend and 55 hours away from home? We headed to Mexico with our favorite working stiff Karl Thompson to explore the limits of the weekend warrior.
