Volcano Climber Scales New Heights Emma Kirwan climbed the Cotopaxi volcano in Ecuador in 2009 and hated every step the way up. "My mantra the whole way up was, 'Remember how much this stinks because you don't ever want to do it again,''' says 26-year-old Emma, a Wilton High School graduate who lives in Norwalk.
