Photos of Nico Calabria

Nico and his father, Carl, at base of Mount Kilimanjaro before starting their trek. His Kilimanjaro climb was part of a rite of passage that the Calabria family calls the 'coming of age adventure,' undertaken when each of their children turns 13. Nico's older brother Kyle, now 15, chose to explore caves in Belize two years ago, and his 8-year-old sister, Maya, says she plans to ride horses in Ireland when she turns 13.
